Access rights for local projects
●
Task: Access to projects which were created as follows:
- Manual copy
- Duplicate
- Retrieval
- Migration
● Role: WinCC user (operator, configuration engineer)
● Authorization: SIMATIC HMI, SIMATIC HMI Viewer
● Procedure:
Assign full access rights to the project folder for the "SIMATIC HMI" group.
To do so, open the project following its creation once as administrator or power user.
Alternatively, you can specify access rights in the Windows Computer Management.
Even if you want to copy projects with the Project Duplicator you will need the appropriate
authorizations. You will either have to grant access to the used folders or duplicate them
as main user.
● Explanation:
When a local project is newly created, the members of user groups "SIMATIC HMI" and
"SIMATIC HMI Viewer" automatically receive the necessary access rights to the project
directory.
However, when projects are copied, logged, or migrated, the local authorizations are not
transferred but must be reassigned.
