AVEVA Electrical User Security

An AVEVA Electrical administrator can set security rights for users to enable/disable access to AVEVA Electrical functionality including:

• Access to AVEVA Electrical application modules. Users can be restricted from using any module (license).

• Access to AVEVA Electrical objects can be restricted to read-only (for example, a user cannot add/edit an equipment item or cable etc.) or no access (that means the user cannot view an equipment item or cable).

• Access to project data in Plant Areas can be restricted if required. Users can be given Full, Read-only or No access to data in plant areas as appropriate.

AVEVA Electrical objects include project items such as cables, equipment and catalogues. Functionality such as data import can also be restricted as required.

By default, all new projects have the User Security Rights features disabled. If User Security is required it must be turned on using the Electrical Security Manager application. Users must then be allocated to 'Security Groups' such as Engineers and Designers, Read-Only Users etc. Please refer to the AVEVA Electrical Security Manager documentation for further information.

Note:
Once security is switched on, by default users will have read-only access until they are added to a Security group.
