Creating new toolboxes

Create a

toolbox

to configure a group of

tools

to which a

user

has access. Toolboxes are set up so that some

users can use certain tools but not others. For example, an administrator has access to more tools than a
user.

NOTE:

The toolbox name must start with an alphabetic character followed by alphanumeric characters,

embedded blank characters, underscore (_), or dash (-) and must be less than or equal to 16 characters in
length.

To add a toolbox:

1.

Select Options

SecurityUsers and AuthorizationsToolboxes, and then click New. The New

Toolbox

section appears.

2.

In the Name field, enter a name for the new toolbox. This field is required.

3.

In the Description field, enter a description for the toolbox.

4.

Select Toolbox is enabled to enable the toolbox and all authorizations created with this toolbox.

5.

In the Show tools in category field, select the category to display a list of tools in the available tools
list. Select the tools to be assigned to this toolbox in the available tools list, and click >>.

contents

list, and click << to remove it from the assigned tools list.
