Attribute User Access Window

Permission to use attribute types is granted by moving the attribute types from the Available Attribute Type pane to the Selected Attribute Type pane. If you do not want a group to use certain attribute type(s), remove permission by moving the attribute type(s) from the Selected Attribute Type pane to the Available Attribute Type pane.

Once permission to use attribute types is granted to groups, when the user opens a window that contains Attribute Transactions rows or drop-down data windows that contain attribute codes, the system will only display rows for the attribute types to which the user has rights based on the group the user selected at login.

Columns

Buttons

After selecting an attribute type in the Available Attribute Type pane, clicking the Add button will move the selected attribute(s) to the Selected Attribute Type pane.

You can add all attribute types to a group by clicking in the Available Attribute Type pane and then clicking the Add All button.

After selecting an attribute type in the Selected Attribute Type pane, clicking the Remove button will move the selected attribute(s) to the Available Attribute Type pane. In other words, you are denying this group access to these attributes.

You can remove all attribute types from a group by clicking in the Selected Attribute Type pane and then clicking the Remove All button.

How To

If you want all users to be able to use all attributes and do not want to assign permissions, you should not define attribute types. In other words, if you define attribute types and assign those to attributes, users must be given permission to use them via the Attribute User Access window.

If a new attribute type is defined, users must be given permission to use them via the Attribute User Access window.

1. Open the Attribute User Access window.

2. Select the appropriate Group from the drop-down list. The available attributes for this group appear in the Available Attribute Type pane. Attributes to which the group has already been given access (permission) appear in the Selected Attribute Type pane.

3. If you want to grant permission for this group to access additional attribute types, highlight those attribute types in the Available Attribute Type pane and click the Add button. Those selected attribute types move to the Selected Attribute Type pane.

4. If you want to grant permission for this group to access all attribute types, click the Add All button. All rows in the Available Attribute Type pane move to the Selected Attribute Type pane, and the Available Attribute Type pane will be empty.

5. If you want to remove permission from this group to access certain attribute types that are already in the Selected Attribute Type pane, highlight those attribute types and click the Remove button. Those selected rows will move to the Available Attribute Type pane.

6. If you want to move all attribute types back to the Available Attribute Type pane (in other words, this group will not have permission to use any of the attribute types), click the Remove All button. All rows will be moved to the Available Attribute Type pane, and the Selected Attribute Type pane will be empty.
