Typically, a user that logs on via an operator level user account does not have the Configure Database permission and so can only view and operate the items in the database. The Operator Document Store feature allows an operator level user to create and edit certain types of documents, such as Trends, and save them in the operator document store. These documents can then be viewed and edited by any user with access to the operator document store.
The documents that are created in the user’s operator document store are stored in a specially partitioned area of the database. Operator level users can only add documents to the operator document stores and edit the documents via the Operator Documents Bar.
Each user account can be associated with one or more Operator Document Stores—one for their individual user account, one for the system, and one for each of their User Groups. Your user account is associated with your Operator Document Stores by a high level engineer with the permissions to configure the database.
You can access the contents of your Operator Document Store(s) from either a ViewX client or a Virtual ViewX client (see Access Your Operator Document Stores).
A ViewX Client provides additional functionality to a Virtual ViewX Client, allowing you to manage, as well as access, your Operator Document Store(s). From a ViewX client, you can:
- Create a New Document in an Operator Document Store
- Add a Copy of a Document to your Operator Document Store
- View a Document in your Operator Document Store
- Edit a Document in your Operator Document Store
- Rename a Document in your Operator Document Store
- Delete a Document in your Operator Document Store
- Save a Copy of a Document into an Operator Document Store
- Organize your Operator Document Stores.
