User privileges in Signals Notebook determine what actions users can perform with experiments. Administrators can enable or disable specific privileges to control access levels and maintain data integrity. This article explains how to configure these experiment-specific privileges through the System Objects configuration area.
Solution:
Accessing Experiment Privileges Configuration
- Log in to Signals Notebook Configuration
- Click on the "System Objects" smart folder from the home page
- Select "Experiment" from the list of system objects
Available Experiment Privileges
Administrators can enable or disable the following privileges by checking or unchecking the corresponding boxes:
| Privilege | Description |
|---|---|
| Share | Allows users to share experiments with others of their choosing |
| Share Templates | Allows users to share experiment templates |
| Move Experiments | Allows users to move experiments to another notebook |
| Trash Experiments | Allows users to move experiments to the trash |
| Add Reviewers and Keep Open Experiments | Allows users to add reviewers while keeping experiments in an open state |
| Sign and Add Reviewers Experiments | Allows users to sign experiments with witnessing |
| Sign and Keep Open Experiments | Allows users to sign experiments while keeping them in an open state |

Important Considerations
- Workflow Configuration: Signing options must also be enabled in the Workflows page to be visible to end users
- Horizontal Scrolling: Use the horizontal scroll bar to view all available privileges on the configuration page
- Security Best Practices: Only enable privileges that are necessary for specific user roles
- Compliance: Consider regulatory requirements when configuring signing and approval privileges
- Documentation: Document your privilege configuration decisions for audit purposes
Implementation Strategy
For optimal security and workflow efficiency:
- Analyze your organization's workflow requirements
- Identify which user roles need specific privileges
- Configure the minimum necessary privileges for each role
- Test the configuration with sample users
- Periodically review and adjust privileges as workflows evolve
By carefully configuring experiment privileges, administrators can balance user productivity with data security and regulatory compliance requirements in Signals Notebook.
