Configure View-only Access to an Area

You might need to provide a user access to information from areas within a plant, even though you do not want that user to control any of the processes within those areas. For example, the user may need to monitor the processes in one area as they might directly affect another area.

In the following example, John Smith has been assigned the role of Despatch Handler and as such has been granted control of:

• System elements located in Despatch, with a privilege level of 1
• System elements located in DespatchAccum, with a privilege level of 4
• View-only access Plantwide to track when product is due to arrive in Despatch for packing and distribution.

Alternatively, you could restrict users access to a group of areas (for example, "Receivals") or to a single area (for example, 12).
