Setting Access Rights for a Filter
To set access rights for a filter, do the following:
-
Choose Filters > Filters from the appropriate component (file, change request, requirement, and so on).
The Filters dialog box opens.
-
Select the filter, and click Access Rights.
The Filter <Filter Name> Access Rights dialog box opens.
-
Click Add.
The Assign Access Rights To dialog box opens.
- Select a user or group. Users are listed by their user names and groups are listed by their paths (excluding the All Users group).
-
Select Grant and click OK.
Caution: Never select Deny unless you are creating an exception. Deny records must be created before grant records.
-
Select/clear the appropriate check boxes. Selecting or clearing the check box for a category, such as Generic object rights for a project, selects or clears all the access right check boxes for that category. The category check box has only two states. When it is cleared, the access right check boxes for that category are either all cleared or mixed: some selected and some cleared.
Caution: Clicking Delete removes the selected user or group from the User and Groups list in the Access Rights dialog box. The selected user or group loses any previously set access rights to the Server.
- Click OK.
