Security profiles
Security profiles determine a user's level of access to project information. The security profiles include both global profiles and project profiles. A global profile determines the user's access to application-wide information. A project profile determines the user's level of access to each project within the Enterprise Project Structure (EPS).
When connected to a P6 EPPM database: When you assign a project profile to a user as defined in P6, you also associate the project profile with an OBS element/responsible manager.
When connected to a P6 Professional database: When you assign a project profile to a user, you also associate the project profile with an OBS element/responsible manager.
The user's access privileges, as defined in the project profile, will then apply only to those elements of the EPS that are assigned to the OBS element/responsible manager you selected.
Notes
- While a user is working offline, changes to certain data can cause them not to be able to switch to working online. To ensure users who are currently working offline are not prevented from switching to working online, avoid making changing any of the following data if any user might currently be working offline: User details, Global or project security profiles, OBS assignments (both for users and for projects), and Resource security.
