Restricting Software Authorization

SimonC · ‎09-16-2022

We would like to use the Authorized/unauthorized reports to better manage our software inventory. Right now, we have a pretty flat user config and everyone seems to be able to authorize a software.

Which permission in the role configuration controls the ability to classify a software as authorized?

(running LS v 10.1.0.0)

Hello there!

"Access Configuration" allows users to access the items in the Configuration menu of the web console, the Software\Authorization menu, and the Software\Anti-Virus Settings menu. Keep in mind that users with this permission can change their own user role to add additional permissions.
