Permit possible access: Yes Rea Wri Cre Del All

 

Yes  : Some rights are simple Yes/No rights such as ‘File storage’. Since it is not possible to delete or to read the file storage, there are no rights for it. You can either use the module or not use it, this is the reason why it is either ‘Yes’ or ‘No’.

Rea  : Is the right to read. The user group can read, see or view the contents.

Wri  : Is the right to write. The user group can change, edit or modify the contents.

Cre  : Is the right to create. The user group can create new elements.

Del  : Is the right to delete. The user group can delete elements.

!!  All  !!
The 'All' right should be assigned carefully!
If this right is activated then the user has all rights for all data.
If the 'All' right is not activated the user only has permission to access his own data! The context defines ‘own’ data. A teacher, for instance, only has access to his own timetables or a class teacher/form teacher only has access to the open periods of his/her class.

In the example above a new line was created by clicking on the plus symbol and by clicking on ‘All’the right to read all contact details has been assigned.

Re_001

The green check activates all columns and all possible rights (Rea, Wri, Cre, Del). If you want to deactivate all columns and all possible rights, just click on the empty check box to the right. These two options do not give you any information on the current status of the right but facilitates the administration of rights by sparing the administrator one mouse click.
