1260- Modifying technician privileges for sequences- prevent editing of acq and proc method

Hello,

Can you let us know what software you are using? The answer for Chemstation and CDS is no, there is no level of granularity to the privileges for editing sequence parameters beyond what you have found.

Hi Marty, I'm using open lab CDS version 2.7.

Thanks,

Laura

You could possibly have technicians use a sequence template for building sequences. The role can be setup, so they do not have the privilege to change the sequence template you create. They will still be able to alter the created sequence, but the template will be static.

Hi, 

Thanks for this! Just to add to this, I spoke with Maria from Agilent and to stop technicians editing the acquisition method you need to make sure they are not associated with any memberships.

Hello,

Yes, I would always suggest that users obtain access to roles either through groups or individually not in combination. Also, each user should only have 1 role assigned of each type, project, administrative, and instrument as needed. If you assign roles in multiple locations or multiple roles of the same type it becomes hard to control the users' permissions as roles are additive. You might take away a permission in one role, but they may get it from a different role they are also assigned.
