How to Use Self-Record Permissions in Request Management - AnySecura Manual

This guide introduces the self-record permissions feature within AnySecura's Request Management module, a powerful tool for streamlining external file requests. You'll learn how delegating approval authority to clients can reduce your administrative workload while maintaining a complete audit trail.

We'll walk through configuring these permissions in the Self-Record Permission Settings, showing you how to enable requests for specific users or computers. You'll also discover how to access the advanced settings to fine-tune the scope of what clients can approve on their own.

To reduce the administrative overhead of frequent external file requests, administrators can grant clients self-record permissions, allowing them to approve external file requests within the allowed scope, with corresponding log records.

In "Request Management → Self-Record Permission Settings", set self-record permissions for computers/users. Use the dropdown under Request Status to configure permissions:

  • Empty or Disabled: the client cannot submit this type of request.
  • Allowed: the client can submit this type of request.

Click the AnySecura Self-Record Permission Settings interface Edit button to access advanced settings. The advanced settings are the same as those in Request Approval Permission Settings.
