You can control access to Rational® ClearQuest® Web
by restricting the activities that users and user groups can perform.
These activities include:
- Submitting records
- Modifying records
- Finding a specified record
- Running a single query or accessing the workspace
For example, you can enable users to provide feedback through a password-protected
extranet by performing the following steps:
- Create a ClearQuest user
group for customers who will provide beta test feedback.
- Configure the ClearQuest Web
software so that members of this group can only submit records and view the
results of a single query.
- Distribute the ClearQuest Web
URL to the user group.
When members of the group access the URL, they can only submit records
and view the results of the query that you specify. The records returned by
the query are read-only unless you configure restricted mode to permit record
modifications.
When you log in to ClearQuest Web
in restricted mode, Restricted Mode appears in the
navigation banner at the top of the display. Users are logged on in restricted
mode whenever they cannot obtain a valid Rational ClearQuest Web
license, for example, if all available licenses are in use.
