User groups and functional scope

The robar menu program offers a different range of functions when it is called depending on the caller’s group affiliation:

• The first ROBAR administrator (member of the robaradm and robarsv user groups) who calls the menu program is granted the complete and unrestricted range of functions (see figure 9 in chapter "Screen layout").

• Further ROBAR administrators (members of the robaradm and robarsv user groups) are also normally granted the full range of functions. However, when another ROBAR administrator has already selected an instance for editing in the INSTANCES menu (SELECT function), further ROBAR administrators (with the exception of the “first” ROBAR administrator) can only edit this instance with restrictions:

  • In the INSTANCES menu this instance is selected with the SELECT function, but a warning (RSV1434) is issued.

  • The EDIT and DELETE functions are then not available for this selected instance in the INSTANCES menu.

  • The DEFINES and MANUAL menus are then not available for this selected instance.

• ROBAR operators (member of the robarsv user group) are then offered a restricted functional scope.
