NOTE: If multiple users are accessing a task simultaneously, the changes made by the last user who edited
the task are saved. For example, if User1 and User2 sign-in to HP SIM with administrative rights and User1
is editing a task while User2 is deleting the task, when User1 tries to save the edited task a message appears
indicating that the task does not represent an object in the system and User1 cannot save the edited task.
User privileges
The list of tasks that a user can see is based on the user's privileges. All users can edit, delete, and view the
