Edit Permissions

You can set a role's default access level for objects in Oracle WebCenter Collaboration. All Oracle WebCenter Collaboration objects have five possible levels of access: No Access, Read, Write, Edit, and Admin. Each access level above No Access inherits the rights from all lower access levels. By default, Project Members have Write access level to Oracle WebCenter Collaboration objects and Project Guests have Read access level.

To edit the default access levels for a project role, select the desired access level for each object type and click Finish. To save your changes, click Finish in the Project Editor.
