Field

Description

USER ID

Displays the name of the user.

WRITE ACCESS

If enabled, the user can update the Plan page and the Plan Task page, and all pages accessed from these pages, for the selected plan.

READ ONLY

If enabled, the user can view the Plan page and the PlanTask page, and all pages accessed from these pages, for the selected plan. The user cannot update any pages.

NOTE: The logged in user cannot set read only access for his or her own account and the READ ONLY check box is not available for the logged in user’s account.

If a user has read only access, that user cannot update any page in the plan, including the Plan Access Setup page. Therefore, if the logged in user could set read only access for his or her own account, the logged in user could never change access for his or her own account back to Write Access.

For example, user BFranklin is logged in and has access to the Software Implementation plan as a member of the Sample Plan Level Role. BFranklin can change permissions to read only for any user on the Plan Access Setup page, and restrict that user’s access to all pages in the Software Implementation plan to read only. However, BFranklin cannot change his own access to read only. It is set to Write Access by default.

IGNORE DURING SYNC PROCESS

If enabled, the READ ONLY setting for the user ID is ignored when the automatic synchronization procedure runs. The user's read only access is not updated during this procedure, which syncs the settings on the Plan Access Setup page with the Security Role settings for dspTrack™.

Refer to Use Template Security Roles for more information.

NOTE: If a user is assigned to the Business User role only, this feature is not available, as users assigned to the security role only do not display on this page.
