Setting Up User-specific Permissions for Windchill RV&S and Windchill Modeler OSLC Servers
You can set up user specific permissions in the following ways. These instructions are applicable for Codebeamer, and IBM Rational Doors NG too.
• Create user groups for the following user profiles:
◦ Configurator
◦ End user
Create a unique user group for an end user profile specific to the configured external OSLC servers. For example:
▪ Create a user group RVS for an end user profile using Windchill RV&S OSLC server, and a user group Modeler for user profiles using Windchill Modeler OSLC server.
▪ Create a user group that includes user profiles common to RVS and Modeler user groups.
• Create units in Organizations specific to the user groups that you have created.
After creating a new configuration Thing, enable the Visibility permission of the Thing for a specific user group based on their user profile.
• Enable Visibility permission for the RVS user group to see a Windchill RV&S specific Thing.
• Enable Visibility permission for the Modeler user group to see a Windchill Modeler specific Thing.
After creating a new validation flow Thing, enable the Visibility and Service Execute permissions for appropriate user groups.
• Enable Visibility and Service Execute permissions for the Modeler user group to see and execute the Windchill Modeler specific validation flow Thing.
Since Windchill RV&S uses the default OSLC validation flow, no such permission is required for Windchill RV&S.
