FactoryTalk Batch
 Client security

FactoryTalk Batch
 View,
FactoryTalk
eProcedure
, Batch View HMI controls, Equipment Editor, and Recipe Editor use
FactoryTalk
 Security, which allows security settings to be shared among
FactoryTalk
 enabled products across a network or on the same computer.
FactoryTalk
 Directory is the infrastructure which contains the security policies defined for
FactoryTalk
 Security secured resources.
FactoryTalk Batch
 secured resources include Batch Commands, Phase Commands, the Batch View windows, and log ons to
FactoryTalk Batch
 components. For a complete list of
FactoryTalk Batch
 secured objects and their default security policy settings refer to the
FactoryTalk Batch
 Administrator Guide
.
FactoryTalk Batch
 product policies are created in the Network Directory when the
FactoryTalk
 Services Platform installs. The
FactoryTalk Batch
 product polices are used to restrict access to the
FactoryTalk Batch
 client components and the features within them. (See the
FactoryTalk
 Help for more information.)
The
FactoryTalk
 Services Platform installation process:
  • Creates both a
    FactoryTalk
     Local Directory and a
    FactoryTalk
     Network Directory on the computer.
    When the install process finishes, both directories are fully configured and ready for use.
    TIP:
    Security settings are completely separate in the Network Directory and Local Directory. Changes you make to the security settings in the Network Directory do not affect the Local Directory and vice versa.
  • Allows any Windows Administrator user account to log on to either directory.
    The installation process automatically adds the local Windows Administrators group to the
    FactoryTalk
     Administrators group in each
    FactoryTalk
     Directory.
  • Allows any authenticated Windows user to log on to the
    FactoryTalk
     Local Directory.
    The installation process automatically adds all members of the local Windows Authenticated Users group to the
    FactoryTalk
     Local Directory.
  • Allows all new user accounts full access permissions.
    The installation process automatically sets system policies to allow all new user accounts added to either directory full access to that directory by default.
