Associating Objects with Reading Access Areas
The Administration navigation window of the HOPEX desktop allows access to general and object reading access areas.
The reading access areas tree is used to:
• connect objects to a given reading access area
• quickly propagate the reading access area to child objects
This tree simplifies management of propagation of reading access areas (see Propagating a reading access area from HOPEX). Its advantage compared with the classic propagation tool is that the propagation trace is kept thanks to the link.
Connecting objects to object reading access areas
To connect an object to an object reading access area:
1. Connect to HOPEX.
2. Open the Administration navigation window.
3. Expand the Data Reading Access folder.
4. Right-click the object reading access area concerned and select Connect Object.
5. In the query dialog box, find and select the desired objects and click OK.
The objects are connected to the object reading access area and appear in the tree.
Disconnecting objects from reading access areas
To disconnect an object connected to a reading access area:
1. Connect to HOPEX.
2. Open the Administration navigation window.
3. Expand the folder of the reading access area concerned.
4. Right-click the object you want to disconnect and select Disconnect.
The object disappears from the tree.
