Rights assigned to rights groups

A right is the permission to perform a specific activity. A rights group is a collection of rights.

Rights grant access to different parts of the application. Entire parts of the application are hidden when users do not have the rights to work in those areas.

When a new user is created in the InForm application, an administrator with the right to modify user information assigns the user to a rights group, providing the user permissions to perform specific study activities.

For example, a user can be assigned to a rights group with the appropriate rights to screen and enroll subjects. The individual Enroll Subjects right is static, but the group of rights assigned to the rights group is configurable.

A user can be a member of only one rights group.
