IMPAX 6.5.1 Client Knowledge Base: Extended > Managing teaching files
The ability to view teaching files at all is controlled by:
Licensing—The license used must include the teaching files option
Permissions—The assigned permissions must include the Teaching Files operation.
You can also set permissions on the specific teaching file folders to control who can access them. You can define whether users can only view the files or can also make changes to them. However, the set folder permissions can be overridden by any user who has the Override permissions on a folder operation included in their permissions.
To control permissions for teaching files
In the Text area's Study List, on the Teaching Files tab, right-click on a teaching file folder.
Select Configure Access.
In the Configure Access dialog, for the required role, select the checkbox in the appropriate column:
Read—allows users in that role to view teaching files in the selected folder.
Write—allows users in that role to add and modify teaching files to the selected folder.
Modify Permissions—allows users in that role to use the Configure Access command. Selecting this checkbox also enables the Read and Write permissions for the role.
Enabling access for a role enables access for all of its sub-roles.
Click OK.
