5620 SAM
System Administrator Guide
Each user can control which objects the 5620 SAM displays in maps, lists, and navigation
trees, based on the user span of control. The User Preferences form contains a
parameter that globally specifies whether the Edit Access span objects of the user
appear by default. Objects that are not in a View Access span of the user are not
displayed, regardless of the user preference. See “To filter using span of control” in
the 5620 SAM User Guide for information about configuring the user span of control
display preference.
In a list form, you can override the global display preference using the Span On
parameter. The associated advanced filter form contains a selector for filtering the
search results based on the span of control. See the 5620 SAM User Guide for
information about configuring span of control filters.

Procedure 2-5 To create a span of control profile
A span of control profile is a collection of one or more spans that is assigned to a user
group. When you create a profile, each span in the profile is assigned one of the
following access types:
• View Access—The user can view the span objects, unless the scope of command
permissions deny read access.
• Edit Access—The user can modify the span objects, unless the scope of
command permissions deny access.
• Blocked Edit—The user can view but not modify the span objects, regardless of
the scope of command permissions.
• Blocked View—The user cannot view or modify the span objects, regardless of
the scope of command permissions.
