Window Permissions Window (F11)

 

A Tasklist security row exists for the F11/Window Permissions window. Only application groups with access to this window can open this window. If you do not have permission to the Window Permissions window, you can press F11 but nothing will appear, not even a message indicating lack of access to the window.

This window allows you to manage security for each window while you are using that window, eliminating your having to go back and forth from the current module you are using to the Tasklist module to manage security for each window. However, any changes you make in this window will be saved to the Tasklist module.

The Window Permissions window for the Name Entity window is used as an example in this Help topic.

The sample window above is an example of the window that initially opens when you press F11 from a J1 Desktop window. It includes:

C

Available Groups

D

Available Users

Permissions Tree

The Permissions Tree always displays the name of the J1 Desktop window at the top of the tree (the window on which you clicked F11), identified by the icon. When expanded, the Groups for <window name> node (identified with the  icon) lists groups that have access to that window as well as application users assigned to those groups. Also included in the tree is a listing of all sub-functions (like tabs, buttons or other secured controls on the main J1 Desktop window), identified by the icon, with the application groups and users that have been granted access to those sub-functions.

·       If groups have members, the  icon is displayed beside the group.

·       If groups do not have members, the icon is displayed beside the group.

·       Users in the tree are represented with the icon.

·       The icon indicates that a group has “view only” permission to the window or sub-function.

Additional Details

This section has three different views, depending on the node you click in the Tree.

·       Window/Sub-function view:



When you click on the main window in the root of the tree or a sub-function, you see a view displaying the name of the J1 Desktop window or sub-function and its related Function ID, Module code, and whether it is allowed to be used in an Activity Center. The Purpose text box is for future use and will be populated with Jenzabar-provided default data, which will describe the main window or sub-function.

·        Application Group view:



When you select an application group in the Tree, you see a view that displays the application group Description and Group ID, as well as the Functions Permissions for this Group, which details all of the windows and functions that have been granted to that group, not just for the J1 Desktop window you are currently viewing.

·       Application User view:



When you select an application user in the Tree, you see a view that displays the application User ID and Name, Name Master ID Number, Active Directory User name (how the user is identified in Active Directory), and Function Permissions for this User, which details all of the windows and functions that have been granted to that user. You will also see a listing of application groups to which the application user belongs and can filter the Functions Permissions for this User display by selecting one or more of those application groups so that you can see from what application group a user received access.

Available Groups

All available application groups are displayed. The icon beside a group indicates that this group has assigned members.

·       If you hover the mouse over the icon, a message tells you that the group has members.

·       If you click the icon, a popup window displays the groups of which the user is a member.

Application groups can be dragged to the Permissions Tree and dropped on the “Groups For…” node in the tree (which means you are granting access to that group to the main window in the root of the Permissions Tree) or sub-functions of the main window. You can also drag more than one group to the Permissions Tree by utilizing the Shift + Click and Ctrl + Click methods.

Available Users

All available application users are displayed. The icon beside a user indicates that this user is a member of one or more groups.

·       If you hover the mouse over the icon, a message tells you that the user is a member of one or more groups.

·       If you click the icon, a popup window displays the groups of which the user is a member.

Application users can be dragged to the Permissions Tree and dropped on any application group in the tree, making that user a member of that application group. You can also drag more than one user to an application group in the Permissions Tree by utilizing the Shift + Click and Ctrl + Click methods.
