New Clarity Security Group and Navigation Links

Greater access control is provided for the Account Settings, Organizer, and Projects pages. You can control who sees the links in the Home menu and navigates to the pages for these features. A user must be granted the explicit right to see each of these features.

In previous releases, the rights to see the pages were granted by default. To allow existing customers who wish to continue to provide these rights to users as a whole, a new out-of-the-box user group named Basic group for user access is available with this release. The new user group provides the new access rights.

For Upgrading Customers

All users are assigned to the group, and the new access rights are assigned to preserve existing functionality. You can remove the rights from the group if you wish, or you can add additional rights. The following table lists the new access rights assigned to the group for upgrading customers.

New Access Right

Description

Account Settings - Navigate

Makes the Account Settings link available in the Home menu so that a user can navigate to the Account Settings page.

Organizer - Access

Makes the Organizer link available in the Home menu so that the user can open the Organizer page and view the Action Items and Notifications portlets.

Projects - Navigate

Makes the Projects link available in the Home menu so that a user can navigate to the Projects list page and open projects.

For New Customers

All users are assigned to the group by default, but no access rights are assigned. This gives a new customer the option of adding the rights that are needed. You can modify the group's access rights as needed.
