Use Case: Changing Area Permission of an Asset Group

Scenario:

A user wants to change the area permissions of an existing asset group.

Pre-Conditions:

• The user is linked to one or more security profiles.
• The asset group exists where permission inheritance is enabled.

Action:

The user uses the Change Permission dialog and links and unlinks one or more areas to the existing group.

Post-Conditions:

• The area_ace of the existing group is changed.
• If it is an inheritance group, the area_ace of the members are updated.

Note: Enabling and disabling permission inheritance does not modify the area permissions.
