You can assign function privileges to provide users and user groups with specific functionality and thus control their authorizations across a database. Function privileges for databases are assigned in ARIS Architect on the properties pages of users or user groups. In ARIS Administration, administrators manage users, user groups, cross-database and cross-product privileges and licenses for all ARIS products.
Users with this function privilege can lock group content, objects, and models during Release Cycle Management. Permanently locked database items are displayed, but they can only be edited by the user who locked them. This user and, in ARIS Architect, system users (What is the 'system' user?, What is a system user?) can remove the lock.
Users with this function privilege can change the color or line weight of objects in models by changing the Fill color, Line color, Line style, and Weight boxes on the Format > Representation > Object appearance page.
As a result, only the appearance of this object occurrence differs from the default appearance defined in ARIS Method.
To change ARIS Method you need the Configuration administrator function privilege in ARIS Administration.
Users with the Prefix management function privilege can manage database prefixes and change this attribute for all database items for which they have the Write access privilege.
Prefixes of a database are managed on the Administration tab on the Identifier properties page. By assigning a particular prefix to a user, you can identify the users who have created database items.
Users with the Report automation function privilege can run reports as scheduled reports. The group Scheduled reports is displayed in the Explorer tree.
