Restricting Configuration for Layouts

Restrict who can view and edit layouts by assigning the layout to one or more access groups. Process Designers with matching access group permissions set in their user profile will be able to view or edit the layout.

Note:  The access groups that display for selection are based on your access group permissions as defined in your user profile. Additionally, access group settings for the layout must match the user permissions of other Process Designers in order to display for them. For an overview of how to use access groups to restrict configuration components, see Restricting Configuration via Access Groups Overview.

To restrict layout configuration:

1. From the System menu, select Page Design > Layouts.
2. Do one of the following:

• To add a new page layout - Click Add New in the upper right corner of the page and create the layout as described in Creating Page Layouts.
• To edit an existing page layout - Click the name of the layout to open it for editing.

3. In the Layout section under Configuration Access Groups, click to select the access group(s) to which this layout belongs.

The access group(s) displayed are based on the current user's access group permissions. Only access group(s) to which you have Edit permissions are selectable. However, parent access group information is visible for access groups to which you have View permission.

The layout is selected to the highest level access group listed by default. Note that the layout is only added to access groups that are checked. It does not propagate to child access groups unless those child groups are checked.

Process Designers with matching access group permissions will be able to navigate to and edit the layout, depending on their individual access group permissions.

4. Click Apply to save your changes.
5. Click Save or Save and Close to save the layout to Accolade.
