If a project has been set up, user control may be enabled. This enables the project administrator to set up groups with associated permissions. Users can then be subscribed to these groups to restrict the functionality that they can use.
To enable user control:
-
Go to File > Options > Project tab and enable User Control. This brings up a dialogue asking the user to set up the admin password.
-
Enter the desired password and confirm it, then select OK.
Setting up user permissions
To set up the user permissions:
-
Go to the Utilities tab and select the Users button. This brings up the User Management Panel.
-
To set up a new group, right-click on the Group entry and select New > User Group.
-
Name the User Group and select OK.
-
To set the permissions for this group, click and drag the desired permission from the Permissions section onto the appropriate group. Repeat this for all the desired permissions.
-
When the appropriate groups have been set up, right-click on the Users entry and select New > User.
-
To subscribe a user to a group which allows them rights to all the permissions within that group, click and drag the desired group from the Groups section onto the appropriate user. Repeat this for all the desired subscriptions.
