The Access Control Management Tool lets you set restrictions to control the type of Workflow Manager data that users can access. When a user logs in and requests data, the system automatically checks for restrictions.

• User—according to the user’s personal access level. See Adding Restrictions to Users and Groups.

• Group—according to the group to which the user belongs. See Adding Restrictions to Users and Groups.

You configure access control by opening the Access Control Management tool and adding, updating, and removing restrictions, as required. This lets you determine the exact data that each user can access by setting restrictions that place limitations on the data that the specific user, group, or node is authorized to access.

Examples

• No assigned access level means that the user has full access to all Workflow Manager data. All users must be assigned to a group, so if neither the individual user nor the group has been assigned an access level, all users in the group have full access.

• A group restriction specifying a MODALITY DICOM tag and an MR value means that users in this group can only view MR images.
