Data Access Control (DAC)
Data Access Control (DAC)
The basic method of controlling users’ access to data in AVEVA E3D™ is by means of the 'teams owning databases' mechanism ‑ only members of the team owning the database have write access to it. This is always the case, but you can additionally use Access Control Rights (ACRs) to provide a much more sophisticated level of access control. These allow you to:
•
Restrict users’ access to named elements or given element types, or to particular volumes of the model.
•
Restrict the type of operation (for example, Create, Modify or Delete) that a user can carry out on elements.
•
Restrict which attributes a user can set or change.
•
Restricts the users ability to transfer model data during an Output, Export and Copy Function.
The default AVEVA E3D™ access control will apply to the project unless the Data Access Control option on the Project menu in ADMIN is switched on.
Note:
Once you have switched on Data Access Control, no General users will have write access to any elements unless you have set up ACRs giving them access to those elements. Free users always have full access to all elements.
Data Access Control (DAC) can be applied to Update, Multiwrite and Controlled databases.
