Setting Up Security

Permissions

Add and remove permissions from the Security Setup screen. These permissions

determine who can do what to each object. Create permissions for individuals or

groups of users.

Whether sorted by user or by object, the result is the same. For example,

permissions for Fax Users to All Modems are identical to permissions for All

Modems for Fax Users. The permission stays with the user, regardless of where

the permission is created.

The following example starts with the users screen. To view and edit permission

values, follow these steps:

1 With administrator permissions, open the Security Setup window. Select Sort By

Users.

2 Open a user-defined group folder. In the example, Developers.
3 Select an object or object group. In the example, All Fax Jobs.
4 Expand that folder to view all sub-groups. Click one of them. In the example All

Fax Jobs Owned by ‘Self’ was chosen.
