Setting case script access and options

Once a case script is created, you need to set user access rights to each script. CaseMap stores user script access permissions locally in the Windows registry on each computer from which CaseMap is run. By default, users do not have access rights to create and run scripts.

When you first save a script, you have the option to make scripts available to one user or all users in a case. You can, however, make a script available to multiple case users and not accessible to others. You must simply log in as each user and then load the script into the case.

CaseMap system administrators can customize CaseMap's installation program to preset user's access permissions to case scripts. Please contact CaseMap Support if you are interested in doing so.
