Incident Access Rights

Since incidents are typically short lived and you can have many incidents at any given time, access rights to incidents are governed from incident categories. You can see only the incidents mapped to categories to which you have access rights. Your CA Clarity PPM administrator can assign access rights to incidents from the Administration Tool or the Incident Manager can assign access rights within the incident instance.

The following access rights are needed to work with incidents and incident categories:
