Understanding and Working With the Interface Rights Grid

The Interface Rights Grid appears on the General tab for all interface types. The Grid displays the interface rights (permissions) configured for the interface. Only the interface rights that are configured here will appear on the Interface menu (Shift+F8 Quick keys option)

The available configurations will vary per interface type and the General tab may appear different than the above image (depending on the interface type you are configuring), however all available interface rights may be configured for any interface type. It is the responsibility of the installer to know whether or not the interface actually supports the functionality.
