Associate a Windows user group with a role.

Hi All,

I am facing issue while using the windows users groups with a role. I just want to give  Runtime access to the operator & for  Engineer/Manager I want to give the access of plant SCADA studio also.

These roles working fine in Runtime(SCADA) but I want to keep restriction over the studio so only engineer can open the application for development etc.

    That is done in Windows, using either modifications to the registry or through Group Policy. There are actually several different ways you can go about it, depending on how your Windows machine is configured regarding the Group and User distribution on the machine you want to limit. It is not something to be done in Citect/AVEVA. I do it on my builds via Group Policy, by limiting what applications Non-Administrative accounts can run. It can get moderately complicated; so I would suggest searching on some of the below, possible google searches . . .

    1) "restrict users from running specific applications"

    2) "restrict users from running specific applications group policy"

    3) "restrict groups from running specific applications"

    4) "restrict groupfrom running specific applications group policy"

    I googled term 2) and got back a good amount of hits for applicable tutorials. There are many different ways to get done what you want to do. You just have to spend a little time sifting through the different available methods in order to determine which approach is best for your particular setup.
