User Privileges and Access Rights

 
Every Perspective user’s visibility and access rights are customized by a user, or users, designated as the Administrator(s).
 
Some basic users may only be authorized to read and add new records, without any editing, locking, unlocking, or deleting privileges. The records they are permitted to read may also be restricted by various security controls, and some forms may not be visible (e.g., Investigations forms or the Controls tab). Furthermore, these basic users may be restricted from advanced components, such as Analysis Expert or Reports. On the other hand, highly advanced users may have full access to all system components, forms, fields, and functions.
 
If you are unable to view a particular component or form, or if you are not permitted to perform a certain function, it may be a result of your assigned user privileges. For more information on how data is segregated within Perspective and how user visibility and access rights are assigned, refer to the Security Layer Overview chapter in the Perspective Administrator’s Guide, or, if you possess appropriate access rights, in the online Admin Help.
