Use this window to edit an access template. An access template is a collection of security settings that you can assign to users quickly, instead of having to assign access rights every time a user is added. An access template acts as a holder for security settings. You can assign users a different access template for each project, but only one access template can be assigned per project.
For example, if you want a group of users to have the same permissions to a particular database and module, create an access template with the desired permissions, then assign the template to the users. This will assign the permissions to all the users at once, instead of having to configure each user independently.
Project rights override the rights of an access template. For example, when you assign an access template to a user, the user inherits the permissions contained in that template. However, any permissions assigned to the user at the project level via the User Project Access dialog box will override the settings in an access template.
