Permissions
Permissions represent the operations that can be performed on an object. When your Windchill system is configured, an administrator establishes the permissions a specific participant (user, group, or organization) is granted, denied, or absolutely denied for types of objects that are created within a domain. There are two types of access control rules that establish permissions: ad hoc access control rules and policy access control rules.
When using your Windchill system, you can also establish a unique set of permissions for a specific object using the Set Access Control step when you create a folder or share an object, or using the Edit Access Control action after the object has been created.
The following table lists the access permissions that are available in your system and describes the possible rights that are granted, denied, or absolutely denied.

An administrator can limit the set of permissions that are available, so you may not see all of the permissions described in this table.

In addition to having the permissions required for an operation, users are required to have Read permission on any object displayed in the user interface while they are performing the operation. For example, to navigate to an object that is contained in a folder, users must have Read permission on the folder as well as the object in the folder.
