16. User Classes > Access > Restrict Functions

Sometimes a library wishes to restrict or block certain system functions to some or all of the User Classes it has created. The Restrict Functions screen enables the administrator to disable up to four system functions for a User Class, including the following:

  • Print

  • Email

  • Save

  • Search History

First, click on the Access button. Several appropriate buttons will then appear on the left toolbar, including the Restrict Functions button. Click Restrict Functions.

You may expect that this screen will primarily be used by administrators to restrict users from using the Print function. It should be noted, however, that this application will prevent print functionality within the WilsonWeb application, but does not disable the browser (Internet Explorer or Netscape) print-screen functionality. The administrator can grant and restrict functions by User Class using the Grant and Restrict buttons. A User Class is given all functions by default.

To restrict a particular function:

  1. Choose the User Class.

  2. Select the function that you want to disable from the drop-down list.

  3. Click Restrict.

  4. Click Save to confirm.

Remember to assign User Class to a valid access type.

To grant a particular function:

  1. Choose the User Class.

  2. Select the function that you want to enable from the list on the right.

  3. Click Grant.

  4. Click Save to confirm.

Remember to assign User Class to a valid access type.
