Rights

User Rights must be added for them to be able to view and interact with some parts of Tango™. "User Roles" can also limit what a user can see by setting the "Rights"(a.k.a "User Regions"). See Roles Section to understand what roles affect visibility.

  • Confirm Done - Allows the user to "Checkoff" Condition Entries and view the selected section of the tree.
  • Close Issue - Allows the user to "Close" Condition Entries and view the selected section of the tree.
  • Administration - Allows the user to "Checkoff and Close" Condition Entries and view the selected section of the tree.
The Rights Section allows the DB Administrators to limit which locations (sections) of Tango a user has the rights to Edit, Checkoff, Close, or Administrate.

For example:
John Doe, should be able to "View" the plant, but should only be allowed to "Administrate" the Condition Entries under the "103 Room 3".

To set this users rights:

1) From the "User Configuration" page, click the "Rights" button to the right of the user name.

2) Right click the plant location (top location), a selection box will display under the tree with the 4 available buttons.

3) Select the appropiate "Rights" option for that user, for that location. In this case, click "View" to give John Doe view rights to the entire plant.
