Rights Assignments List

The Rights Assignments List contains the following columns:

• Project - Lists all the projects that are assigned security rights for the selected user. This only lists projects that have security rights assignments (not including projects where any inherited rights exist). A project that is not assigned any security rights will inherit security rights from its parent project.
   
• Rights - Lists all the security rights assigned to the user for the corresponding project. You can view the detail information in the rights box by clicking the project.
   
• Effective Rights - Lists all effective (actual)  rights that the user has for the selected project. A user's effective rights for a specific project are the UNION of the security rights assigned for the user AND any group the user belongs to who also has access to the specific project.

For example, a user named "John" belongs group A, and the user "John" as well as group A have access to project "$/test". If the project "$/test" is assigned "P L" (Pin, Label) security rights for user "John" and "M S" (Move, Share) security rights for group A, then the effect rights of user "John" for this project should be "P L M S".
