XBRL Permissions
XBRL permissions are set at the application level in CDM XBRL.
Application permissions dictate what you can and cannot do when you are managing the application as a whole.
Initially, users and user groups do not have any permissions set. You must explicitly allow permissions. Users inherit the XBRL permissions that are set for the group, but you can override the group permissions for an individual user.
Grant User Permissions for XBRL
By default, only the administrator can allow a user or user group to access functions for CDM XBRL without restriction. Initially, users and user groups do not have any permissions set. You must explicitly grant permissions.
To grant user permissions for XBRL:
- Click the Home tab, then in the Navigation Pane, click Administration.
- Under Security, double-click Application Permissions.
- In the Users and Groups pane in the work area, select the user or user group that you want to grant permission to use CDM XBRL.
- In the Application Permissions pane, expand XBRL.
- Select the permissions for the user or user group. You can grant all permissions to the user or user group by selecting the Allow All checkbox.
