Promotion Group Access Control Reference
To control who is entitled to add members to or remove members from a promotion group, product administrators create access control rules when setting up the promotion group definition. Your Siebel application enforces these rules when call center agents add members to or remove members from promotion groups. Member access right values are summarized in Table 113.
Table 113. Member Access Right Values
|
Defines the Ability to... |
Manage Members |
Add, disconnect, and modify members in the entire promotion group. |
Manage Self |
Disconnect and modify one's own membership. Does not include the ability to add oneself to the membership. |
Add Self |
Add oneself to the membership. |
Modify Self |
Modify one's own membership. |
View Members |
View the promotion group members. |
Disconnect Self |
Disconnect oneself from the membership. |
At run time, by default, only promotion group owners can manage the memberships. In addition, your Siebel application enforces access control rules as follows:
- The owner, billing, and service accounts of the promotion group have full access rights to the entire promotion group.
- The owner, billing, and service accounts of an asset associated with a membership that has the Manage Members access right have full access rights to the entire promotion group.
- The owner, billing, and service accounts of an asset associated with a membership that has the Manage Self access right can modify and disconnect that membership. However, these accounts cannot perform these actions on other memberships in the promotion group.
- The owner, billing, and service accounts of an asset associated with a membership that has the Modify Self access right can modify that membership.
- A customer can subscribe to the membership of a promotion group if one of the following statements is true:
- The customer is the holder of the owner, billing, or service account of the promotion group.
- The customer is the holder of the Owner, Billing, or Service Account of an asset already associated with a membership of that promotion group, with the Manage Members access right.
- The membership has the Add Self access right.
- The owner, billing, and service accounts of an asset associated with a membership that has the View Members access right can see all members of the promotion group.
The enforcement of access control rules affects the Promotion Groups screen, Restricted Components view and the Accounts screen, Installed Assets view, as described in the topics that follow. Access Control Rules and the Restricted Components View
In the Promotion Groups screen, Restricted Components view, the access control rules affect the contents of the Components list, the Modify and Disconnect buttons of the Components list, and the Add button of the Promotion Group Definition list.

If the account context is the owner, billing, or service account of the promotion group or of an asset associated with a membership that has the Manage Members access right, then the options are enabled regardless of which list row is selected.

- If the account context of the selected row is the owner, billing, or service account of an asset associated with the selected membership and the membership has the Manage Self access right, then all options are enabled.
- If the account context of the selected row is the owner, billing, or service account of an asset associated with the selected membership and the membership has the Modify Self access right, then the Modify option is enabled.
