Restricting the Permission to Change the Alarm State Sort Order

You restrict the permission to change the alarm state sort order when you want to make sure that a user account group or a user account does not change the alarm state sort order for all users or alarm views in a Building Operation system.

Software permissions are used to control the access user account groups or user accounts have to Building Operation. Software Permissions are also used to control the operations user account groups or user accounts can perform on objects, such as Alarms.

Software permissions are used within a workspace, panel, or domain.

If no software permissions are configured for a user account group or user account, the user has no access to Building Operation.

Note:

  • By default, new user accounts have no permissions to access Building Operation.

  • Changes to the software permissions of a user account group or user account are applied the next time the user logs on.

Path Permissions

​Path permissions are used to give a user account group or a user account access to the objects defined in the path. The permissions configured on a path apply to all path sub-levels unless you configure new permissions for the path sub-level.

For more information, see Path Permissions .

Command Permissions

Command permissions are used to control the operations the members of a user account group can perform on a category of objects in Building Operation. You use command permissions to configure exceptions from path permissions.

For more information, see Command Permissions .

Software Permission Rules

Software permissions provide members of user account groups with certain access and command permissions.

For more information, see Software Permission Rules .

Software Permissions and User Account Groups

A user account group can comprise both user accounts and other user account groups with similar interests. By using a well planned strategy for your user account groups, you apply software ​permissions and polices to multiple user accounts.

For more information, see Software Permissions and User Account Groups .
