Access Control Tab of the Calendar File Properties Dialog Box
Use this tab to enable users or groups to access the calendar file.
The access control entry supports a read only flag. The owner (or member of the SYSADMIN group) can use this feature to override the access rights otherwise permitted to the specific User/Group/Role combination.

Field | Description |
---|---|
User |
Users refer to individuals who can be given the right to open and view the calendar file. |
Group |
Groups are composed of individual users and provide a convenient way of assigning multiple user rights to the calendar file. Typically, a group is a collection of people working on a particular calendar file. A user can be a member of any number of groups. The SYSADMIN group is a special group that has access to administrative information. Use the WORLD group to easily provide access to all users. For example, use this group to provide all users with read access to the calendar file. All users you define in the EPM Security Administrator (EPM SA) automatically become members of the WORLD group in Cobra. Since this special group does not require you maintain the users, you cannot select the WORLD group in the Group list in EPM SA. |
Role |
Roles define the permissions of a user in EPM SA. Each user has a primary role, such as an analyst or a project manager. You can override the primary role for an individual by entering a role next to a group or a user. |
Read Only |
This option, when checked, allows the creator of the calendar file (or any member of the SYSADMIN group) to provide a user or a group with Read Only access to the calendar file. |
