Introduction
'Client permissions' allow blocking (or granting)
access to individual features for all operators
at each client workstation.
Tip: For each specific item, click once to allow viewing
only (magnifying glass), or click again to allow viewing
and editing (pencil). If you click a 3rd time, this will
clear the selection.
Note
: Client (PC) permissions work in conjunction with
permissions assigned to each specific operator. (i.e., a
feature will be available only if allowed for the PC and

select [Management] in the 'tree', open the PC
Access branch, and select Client Access.

permission-set in the list;
 Assign a different permission-set to any
operators as required.
Now, select Client Permissions from your
MyTools bar, or
select [Management] in the
'tree', open PC Access, and select Client
Permissions. Then, use the Grid / Form
toolbar-button to select your preferred view-
mode.

set at the bottom of the window. Then, right-
click a blank portion of the screen and select
Delete. When asked to confirm, select Yes.
