Select default administrator role permissions

administrator

All permissions are enabled for all categories for the default administrator role.

Important

Although you can modify the default administrator role, we recommend creating your own roles and not modifying the default administrator role.

The default administrator role can manage permissions in the following categories and sub-categories of the FactoryLogix system. Each category contains individual permissions that can be enabled or disabled for any additional administrator roles that are created.

Note

To quickly search for a permission, select the first column header on the Permissions tab, press Ctrl+F, enter the search term, then press Enter. The search results are highlighted in Yellow as shown in the following illustration.

Tip

Use the following table to help you track the permissions assigned to the administrator role(s) in your organization.
