Permissions Customize the individual permissions for this access level, if required. Top Access levels Access levels are predefined sets of individual permissions. You can assign an access level as is, or customize it by selecting and clearing individual permissions. No Access Can't view the calendar or add items to it. See Times Can view the calendar, but only see the times set aside for events and tasks. Can't add events to the calendar (events are sent to participants' Mailboxes). Schedule Only Can add events to the calendar indirectly. An event is added to a calendar indirectly when a user creates an event in another calendar and invites the calendar owner (in the case of location and resource calendars, books this location or resource). Schedule+Times Can look at the calendar (times only) and add events indirectly. Schedule+Details Can see descriptions and times on the calendar and add events indirectly. Can't open calendar items.

If you customize another access level, it automatically becomes the Custom access level. Top Order in the "Who" field You must list users and user groups in the "Who" field in the correct order, to make their permissions work as you want. Make sure you are familiar with the access levels available, before deciding on the order in which to enter your users and groups. When a user tries to access the calendar, FirstClass checks the "Who" list from the top. When it finds the first occurrence of the user or a group to which the user belongs, it uses that access level for the user. This means that if the first thing you list is the All Users group, and make the access level for this group No Access, no one will be able to access the calendar. Top Individual permissions The icons in the "Permissions" column represent individual permissions. To see what each permission icon means, display its tooltip. To turn a permission on or off, select or clear the checkbox beneath it. Note Certain permissions only work if the administrator has given the user privileges to perform associated tasks. If a user can't do something in your calendar, and you gave that user permission, tell the user to contact the administrator. These are the individual permissions you can assign: Edit permissions Can edit this Permissions form. This includes adding users and groups at "Who", and adding users at "List of subscribers".

Events created indirectly remain uneditable. For this permission to work: • you must be a subadministrator • the Edit items permission must also be selected. Be cautious about selecting the Edit read-only items permission, because it overrides normal FirstClass operation. Edit items Can edit any normally editable event or task.
