Security Labels and Agreements
A security label is an attribute that can be set when an object is created or using the Edit Security Labels action on an existing object. Security labels are a means to classify sensitive information and restrict access to only authorized users. An agreement provides a temporary exception to a security label setting on an object. Creating an agreement allows certain users to access the restricted information for a set period of time. Enabling security labels and agreements is an optional configuration on your Windchill system.
