Users with the process admin privilege or the folder security
manager privilege (which defaults to build_mgr in pt.cfg)
can grant and deny folder access. Folder security applies only to
subfolders, not to the top-level folders (for example Shared and System).
Procedure
- In the Action Panel, select how you want to open the appropriate
folder.
- For queries, click Queries, and from the Folder list
for Select a Query, select Manage
Folders.
- For formats, click Queries, and from the Folder list
for Select a Format, select Manage
Folders.
- For reports, click Reports, and then click Manage
Folders in the left pane.
- In Operation, select Manage
Folder Security.
- Click Edit to edit either the Shared or System folder
security.
The Manage Folder Security >folder
type dialog box opens. For example, the Manage
Folder Security > CR System Reports dialog box opens.
- Set the folder access rules.
For example,
for Folder 1, you want user sue to have read access
and user joe and the developers group
to have read and write access.
- In Default Rule, select Deny
read and write access for all.
The default
rule makes all other rules the opposite of the default rule. For example,
by selecting the Deny read and write access for all option,
all users except sue, joe, and developers are
denied access to Folder 1.
- For Folder 1, under Read Access,
type sue.
- For Folder 1, under Read and Write Access,
type joe, developers.
Separate
multiple entries with commas.
- Click Save.
