2.3.6 Available operations by task allocation

By assigning task allocations to a user account, you can limit the modules and menus available to the user and the tasks the user can perform. The range of available operations is determined from the user's permissions and task allocations.

Important

In some cases, a module or menu accessible under a given task allocation contains items that are within the scope of a different task allocation. In this case, the user might be unable to display a particular module or perform a particular operation unless also assigned a task allocation that makes the item available. For example, the Go to Device List button does not appear on the Asset Information tab of the Asset List area in the Asset module for users who are only assigned the asset management task allocation. This is because operations in the Device List view are within the scope of the device management task allocation. If an administrator needs to view the Device List view in the course of his or her work, the user account must be assigned the device management task allocation in addition to asset management.

Tip

If you assign an administration scope in addition to a task allocation, the information available within the scope of the task allocation is further restricted based on the department for which the administrator is responsible.

The following table shows the range of available user operations for each operation window, according to task allocation and permission.

The legend for the tables in this section is as follows:

Legend: Y: Can operate. Y*: Can view only. N: Cannot operate or view.
