New Permissions
The new version introduces new functionality and new object classes related to the new functionality. In order to enable your technicians to access the new functionality and objects, review your existing security roles and grant new permissions to those who need them.
You can skip this step now and assign permissions later, but keep in mind that without these permissions your technicians will be unable to access new features that were introduced in the new version. For instructions on working with security roles, see Managing security roles.
IMPORTANT: We recommend that all modifications of objects in Alloy Navigator Express are always implemented through workflow Actions. The Modify access permission should be granted to administrators who have a good understanding of how direct modifications may affect the system.
Your list of new permissions depends on the version you are upgrading from. See Release Notes to explore what's new.
