Overview

Permissions are the core of Sharevision. It is important to understand how different permission levels effects your site and how to manage different levels of permissions.

You may want to provide or restrict user access to the site or its contents. For example, you might want to provide access to every form and report, or you might want to provide restricted access to certain areas. You may also want to grant permissions to some of your staff to add new data, but not to delete the content. The easiest way to work with permissions is to use the default groups and permissions levels provided with your Sharevision site, which cover most common scenarios. However, if you need to, you can set more fine-grained permissions beyond the default levels. This article describes the different permissions and permission levels, how ShareVision groups and permissions work together, and how permissions cascade through a site collection.

About - Site Permissions

The Site Permissions link loads the master list of site permissions, indicating all security groups with corresponding permission levels assigned somewhere on your site. Security groups without permissions assigned at any level are not listed here. Users and security groups with no site-level permissions are designated Limited Access.

Getting Here - Site Permissions
