Selected Objects Access Control

This grid displays the users or groups that have access to the selected object or objects. Use this grid to define access rights to groups or users with specific roles.

This grid is the same as the grid on Access Control tab of the Properties dialog box for each object.

Field Description
User This column displays the users who have access rights to the selected object or objects. Click to select a user for which you want to grant access rights to the selected object or objects. You can specify a group or a user but not both.
Group This column displays the groups who have access rights to the selected object or objects. Click to select a group for which you want to grant access rights to the selected object or objects. You can specify a group or a user but not both.
Role For each group or user that you want to provide with access to the object, you must specify a role by selecting one from the list. It is possible to use the Role setting to override the default role of a group or user. If not specified, the access right assumes the default role of the group or user.

New Click this button to add a new row in the grid.
Delete Select this button to delete an existing row in the grid.
Update Access Control Click this button to apply the access rights defined in the Selected Objects Access Control grid to the selected object or objects.
  • Add to Access Lists — Select this option and click the Update Access Control button to add the entries you made in the grid to the object's access control list. If the current access control list of the object or objects corresponds to an entry in the Selected Objects Access Control grid, the existing access right will be updated to reflect the change on the corresponding entry in the grid.
  • Replace Access Lists — Select this option and click the Update Access Control button to replace the entries you made in the grid with the entries in the object's access control list.
Note: When multiple objects are selected on the Change Ownership and Access Rights dialog box, only the first selected object is displayed in the grid.
