For information about the properties toolbar, and about the sections Parent Details, Analysis Models, Description and Audit Summary, see Common Properties. We recommend you always add a Description that explains the purpose of the item you are creating. For a full list of all the PhixFlow property tabs and windows, see Properties, Windows, Menus and Toolbars.
When you add modelling objects or applications to the user group, remember to check their Access Permissions. If All Users Can View Data is unticked, then you must provide access to the object:
- Assign user groups to the object.
- Add the user(s) to one of those user groups.
