12.1.3.6.2 Managing Security on Individual Objects

In EPC, you can manage security not only at the environment level but also directly on individual objects. This gives you the flexibility to fine-tune access, ensuring sensitive items are protected while still allowing collaboration where it’s needed.

This page walks you through how to grant, adjust, or remove permissions on a specific object.
→ If you are new to EPC security or want a broader overview of how licenses, permissions, and authorizations work together, see Permission & Security Management.

1. Open Object Security

• Right-click the object in the hierarchy tree → Security

• OR go to the object’s Details page → Edit menu → Security

2. Add a User, Role, or Group

• (Optional) Before searching, you can select a filter to narrow results by user, role, or group.

• Type a name in the search box, then select the correct match from the suggestions.

3. Assign Permissions

• Use the Permission dropdown to set the level (Read, Write, Delete).
• To cascade the setting to sub-objects, click Apply to Children.
  

  **This ensures that items contained within the object inherit the same security settings. If you don’t click the button, only the current object will be affected, and sub-objects will retain their existing permissions.

4. Remove Access

• Click the X next to the user, role, or group.
