Assign a Streamed Desktop

The following types of streamed desktops are available for AVEVA Unified Engineering - Legacy Version:

• AVEVA UE Desktop Standard: Suitable for users who work with non-graphic applications, such as AVEVA Engineering

• AVEVA UE Desktop Graphics: Suitable for users who work with graphic-intensive applications, such as AVEVA E3D Design

Each user must be added to at least one AVEVA Unified Engineering functional group PLUS a group corresponding to the type of desktop you want to assign - AVEVA UE Desktop Graphics User or AVEVA UE Desktop Standard User.

The following scenarios provide examples for adding users to groups:

• A 2D designer working on P&ID drafting would be added to the AVEVA UE 2D Drafter (PID) and AVEVA UE Desktop Standard User groups. By adding to the AVEVA UE 2D Drafter (PID) group, you can provide the required access privileges, and by adding to the AVEVA UE Desktop Standard User group, you can create a Standard desktop for the user.

• A 3D Designer, who specializes in creating 3D designs, would be added to the AVEVA UE 3D Designer and AVEVA UE Desktop Graphics User groups.

The procedure for assigning a desktop to a user is like adding users to groups (refer to the CONNECT Quick Start Guide). The only difference is that, for assigning a desktop, you must add the user to one of the AVEVA UE Desktop Standard User or AVEVA UE Desktop Graphics User groups.

To assign a desktop for a user:

1. On the CONNECT home page, click the menu icon and select User Management. The User Management page is displayed.

2. Click the Groups tab.

3. Click the required group (AVEVA UE Desktop Standard User or AVEVA UE Desktop Graphics User) to add users to this group. The list of users assigned this group are displayed on the Users tab.

   

4. Click Add users to add users to this group. Add the required users to this group for whom you want to assign the desktop.
