Specifying permission levels

 

This information explains how to specify permission levels for jobs, functions of the product, and provide new job default permissions.

You can specify permission levels for jobs, functions of the product, and provide new job default permissions to be associated with each Job Control/Application. The permissions for a job allow you to grant or deny access to the following actions: submit, manage, permission, display, copy, update, or delete. You can also grant or deny access to individual functions of the product such as Work with Schedule Calendars, Send Reports, and Add Job.

Default permission levels are transferred to new jobs when they are added. In which case, the system will transfer the New Job permissions based on the application specified within the job definition. If no application is used, it will transfer the *SYSTEM New Job permissions.
