Operations

The operations tree structure contains all the security configuration and administrative tasks you can perform in SDM. It is logically arranged with parent and child operations that can be accessed once user group and user accounts are created. Individual access to a specific operation within the tree structure can be provided or denied by assigning a privilege to it. Although SDM displays all the operations it supports, some apply only to users who are licensed for a specific application operation.

The top of the operations tree is the root. There can be one or more operation categories below the root that serve as parents for individual operations (children). The child privilege type of higher-level (or parent) operation is equal or less than the privilege type of its parent. When you change the privilege type of a parent, the child privilege type can change based on this rule. However, if the parent privilege type is returned to its previous privilege type, the child remains at the privilege type to which it was bumped and needs to be promoted manually.
