Workflow Job - Permissions

Using the Permissions panel, you can add individual permissions to an object. You can also set permissions by adding ACL templates or ACL policies. The Permissions list is an access control list (ACL) granting roles access to any objects created in the system, such as depot objects. ACLs control access to all objects, including the sharing of objects between roles. For more information, see the following table:

Adding an authorization

An authorization grants permission to a role to perform a certain type of action on this object.

To add authorization to this object, click Add Entry g_V95_AddIcon.gif in the Access Control List area. Then use the Add New Entry dialog box to specify the role and authorization you want to add.

Adding an ACL template

An ACL template is a group of predefined authorizations granted to roles. Using an ACL template, you can add a group of authorizations to the object.

To add an ACL template to the object, click Use ACL Template g_V95_TemplateIcon.gif in the Access Control List area. Then use the Select ACL Template dialog box to specify an ACL template that you want to add to this object.

To set the contents of the selected ACL templates so that they replace all entries in the access control list, select Replace ACL with selected templates. If you do not select this option, the contents of the selected ACL templates are appended to existing entries in the access control list.

Adding an ACL policy

An ACL policy is a group of authorizations that can be applied to this object but can be managed from one location.

To add an ACL policy to this object, click Use ACL Policy g_V95_ACLPolicyIcon.gif in the ACL Policies area. Then use the Select ACL Policy dialog box to specify an ACL policy that you want to add to the object.

To set the contents of the selected ACL policies so they replace all entries in the access control list, select Replace ACL with selected policies. If you do not select this option, the contents of the selected ACL policies are appended to existing entries in the access control list.
