Setting or Changing a General Role Assignment
Use the Manage Database Roles view to set or change rights to a particular folder. Note the
following:
• To delete items, the user must have deletion rights for the folder, even if the user is the owner
of the item to be deleted.
• To move items, the user must have write rights on the object, the folder the object is being
moved out of, and the target folder.
• All users are automatically assigned the Read role for the folder Unchecked-in Avid Assets
(but not the contents), and the Read/Write/Delete role for their private folder within the
Unchecked-in Avid Assets folder. All users are automatically assigned the No Access role
for Orphan Clips. Administrators have full access to all folders. For more information about
the Unchecked-in Avid Assets folder and the Orphan Clips folder, see the Interplay Access
User’s Guide.
To set or change a role for users of the database or a folder:
1. In the User Management section of the Interplay Administrator window, click the Manage
Database Roles icon.
The Manage Database Roles view opens.
2. Select the General Role Assignment option.
3. In the Database pane, select the database or a folder for which you want to set a role.
4. In the User/Group column, select the user or user group.
5. In the Roles column, select the role you want to set.
