The permissions that are assigned for a family are automatically inherited by its subfamilies. For instance, consider the following hierarchy.
In this example, any permissions that are defined for the Event family will also apply to the Calibration and Inspection families. Similarly, any permissions that are defined for the Inspection family will also apply to the Bundle Inspection and Full Inspection families.
In various places throughout GE Digital APM, families are displayed using a hierarchical view. In these cases, users must have at least View permissions at the highest level in the hierarchy in order to access any subfamily within that branch of the tree.
For instance, users would need View permissions to the Event family in order to see the Calibration subfamily in a hierarchical view.
