Rights in Equipment Management, action by action

What you can do in Equipment Management depends on your right on the Equipment row of the rights table (The Users page and the rights table), which your user administrator sets. This page lists, for each action in Equipment Management, the lowest right on the Equipment row that allows it, and who can be chosen as Responsible for an equipment item. A higher right always includes the lower ones.

Equipment Management exists for your company only after Antenor has added the module. If your company does not have it, contact Antenor; see Get help from Antenor support.
