Grant System Explorer Permissions
After TES users have been defined and assigned to their respective groups, the Operator users may need to be given access rights and permissions to System Explorer.
To grant users permission to the Sigmafine System Explorer:
Open the System Explorer and choose the database to which you have connected TES.

Right-click on the database name and select Security > Database.
The Permissions for [database name] window opens.
Click the Add button.
A Select Users or Groups window opens.

In the box at the bottom of the window, add the user's name.
You can click the Check Names button to ensure that you have entered the name properly.
Click OK to add the user and return to the database permissions window.
The user you selected is now displayed in the 'Group or user names' box, as shown in the following figure.

In the Group or user names box, select the user name you just added.
In the Permissions for [user name] box at the bottom of the window, check the Allow checkbox for the following permissions:
- Read
- Write
- Read/Write
Click OK to save your selections and close the window.
Use these same steps to grant permissions for "Elements" and Transfers" as well, by selecting "Security > Elements" in step 2 and then "Security > Transfers" in step 2. These additional processes provide the user with access to the specific tables in the database, which is necessary for them to create and save AF transfers to the selected AF database.
When finished, you will have performed these set of steps three times (1-Database, 2-Elements and 3-Transfers).
