Function documentationAuthorization Inheritance

 

You can assign authorizations directly to a user or the user inherits them from parent business objects. Authorizations that are directly assigned always override inherited authorizations. The following hierarchy is used to determine authorization inheritance:

  • Portfolio –> Bucket

  • Bucket –> Bucket

  • Bucket –> Item

  • Bucket –> Review

  • Bucket –> Collection

  • Item –> Decision Point

  • Bucket –> Initiative

  • Initiative –> Decision Point

  • Initiative –> Phase

  • Initiative –>Item of Initiative
