Default Protection Overridden

If a default set object is directly scoped or brought in as an expansion object, the default protection that is shown in the table is overridden. Instead, the default set object receives the protection that is granted to the scoping object or expansion object. For example:

If you scope a dialect directly, the protection that is requested for the dialect is probably granted instead of the Access protection automatically granted dialects in the default set.
If you scope an entity type that is directly contained by the root subject area, the root subject area comes into the subset as part of the entity type's expansion rather than as part of the default set.
If you scope an action diagram with Read protection, the subset brings in entity types with Read protection. However, if the same entity type is scoped with Modify, the entity type receives Modify protection (assuming no conflicts).
The protection granted the root subject area when it is part of the entity type's expansion depends on the protection granted the scoped entity type.

The following table shows default set of objects (with protections) included in every subset:
