Assign access certifications to an item

You can assign access certifications to an item to manage who can run jobs that produce the item and whether a sign-off is required to complete the recording of the item's production.

If an access certification has been assigned to an item, a user cannot start a job that produces the item unless the following conditions have been met:

• The user has been assigned to the certification.

• The user's certification level is at or higher than the level specified when the certification was assigned to the item.

For information about certifications and how to create them, see Certifications.
