Header

• Organisation Scope

  Indicates whether this entity is available organisation-wide or laboratory-wide.

  • Checked—The entity is available to users who are logged into any laboratory within the organisation.
  • Unchecked—The entity is only available to users who are logged into the current laboratory.

  Setting the unit's scope upon successful creation depends upon the user's security level for the CCUNIT:CREATE resource. The possible security levels for the resource, from greater scope to lower scope, are:

  • full—full

  • 3—LAB AND ORG

  • 2—ORG ONLY

  • 1—LAB ONLY

  A user can have multiple roles, and each role can contain different rights. Any of these role-right combinations may contain the resource.

  If the resource does not exist across all role-right combinations for the user, then the user has no access to the resource. Otherwise the user's security level for the resource is determined as the greatest scope across all role-right combinations for the user. For example, if a user has Role1 that contains RightA, and Right A contains security level 2 for the resource, and the same user has Role2 that contains RightB, and RightB contains security level 1 for the resource, then the user has a security level of 2 for the resource.
