Set General Permissions Read Only

Activating the General Read-Only Permission for a Role suppresses any ability for the user to create, update, or delete data elements within the Student Financial Aid FAS User Interface regardless of any other assigned General Permissions or Document Permissions.

Overview

For example, if the Dashboard is an enabled permission along with the View Document and Doc Review Task permissions for any associated documents the user can see that a document is pending review via the View Student Tasks link, but can't claim or complete the task. If the user has the At-Will Repackage and General Read-Only Permission enabled, the user can view the package, but can't repackage the student, because the General Read-Only Permission supersedes the At-Will Repackage permission.

Required Role Permissions

When the user has the following General Permission through Roles Management they aren't permitted to make any manual overrides of any type in the Student Financial Aid FAS User Interface, regardless of any other enabled General Permissions or Document Permissions.

• General Read-Only

See Set General Permissions Matrix for additional information.
