To Set the Access Level for an Object

1. Select the Access tab of the property page.
2. In the Options region, use the 'Preserve Customizations' and 'Lock at this Access Level' check boxes to define the access levels that can modify this object. The options that you check in this region directly affect the values that appear in the Levels region.
The following table illustrates how the customization and protection levels of an object are affected when you check different combinations of these options. This table assumes that the user setting the options has an access level of 100.
Selected Checkbox Resulting Levels Levels Allowed to Modify the Object
NONE--Object can be updated at any time, by anyone. Customization = 0, Access = 100, Protection = 1000 Object may be updated by any access level (0-1000).
Preserve Customizations-- Disallow customized objects from being overwritten during a workflow definition upgrade. Customization = 100, Access = 100, Protection = 1000 Object may only be updated by access levels from 100-1000. If the "Allow modifications of customized objects" checkbox is checked, customized objects can also be updated by access levels 0-99, as represented by grey crosshatches in the indicator bar.
Lock at this Access Level--Protect the object at the current access level and do not allow the object to be customized. Customization = 0, Access = 100, Protection = 100 Object may only be updated by access levels from 0-100.
BOTH--Object can only be updated by the access level at which the object is protected. Customization = 100, Access = 100, Protection = 100 Object cannot be updated by any access level other than 100. If the "Allow modifications of customized objects" checkbox is checked, customized objects can also be updated by access levels 0-99, as represented by grey crosshatches in the indicator bar.

3. Choose the Apply button to save your changes.
Note: An object appears with a small red lock over its icon in the navigator tree to indicate that it is a read-only if you are operating at an access level that does not have permission to edit an object, that is, your access level is in a white area of the 'Range of Editable Access Levels' indicator bar.
