Hi Everyone,

I have a question regarding PM Actions and the available access-control mechanisms in IFS.

I’ve noticed that an Administrator Group concept is available for areas such as PM Programs and Work Task Templates. However, I don’t see a similar administrator/access group option for PM Actions.

PM Actions have Revision Control, which provides a way to control changes to an existing PM Action. However, the Revision Control option itself can be turned ON or OFF by users who have access to the PM Action.

Our requirement is to restrict who can make changes to an existing PM Action and, more importantly, who is allowed to enable/disable Revision Control.

I understand that it is possible to remove access to the Revision Control button through permission sets. However, I’m wondering why the Administrator Group concept cannot be used for PM Actions in the same way it is used for PM Programs and Work Task Templates.

Thank you

Best regards,

Nipun G

Hi Nipun,

my customer have the same requirement.  To address this we have implemented a very small CRIM, removing the option to turn on and off revision control and making entering a reason for new revision mandatory.  

In addition, access to the New Revision function will be controlled thru RnA.

But, I agree that it seems odd that Admin control is not implemented on PM Action.
