The System Access Privileges have two dialog boxes: one for the role assignment and one for the user assignment. Administrators assign System Privileges directly to a user or role. System Access Privileges apply to the system as a whole, not to individual categories of objects or items. Table 1 describes all the predefined privileges for System Access Permission.

Permissions |
Permission Privileges |
|---|---|
|
Discard All Events |

Gives the user the following privileges: Reset Device, Archive Device, Set Date, Set Time, Force Archive of Local Repository (audits and trends), Change Audit Enabled Level, and Remove from Site (offline devices and servers).

View Metasys Status 1 |
Gives the user permission to display and use the Audit Viewer. To display the Audit Viewer, the user must have View permission and View Metasys Status permission. Also, the audit data visible in the Audit Viewer depends on the categories for which the user has View privileges. |

Discard Acknowledged Events |

A user who has the Discard Acknowledged Events permission can discard any event that the user has permission to acknowledge, even if it has already been acknowledged. The Discard Acknowledged Events permission provides a one-step shortcut for the two-step process of acknowledging the event and then discarding the event afterward. |
