What is the significance of the different roles within a Design Code?

Answer

Design Codes are used within the PLM to grant users access rights to documents.
Within a Design Code there are different roles, which provide different access rights. A user can hold more than one type of role within a single Design Code.

Role

Significance

Viewer

Read only access rights.
Can view information, e.g. drawing & design data but perform no data modification.

Contributor

Access rights to view, create and edit.

Users with Contributor role can also launch Design Verification Workflows.

Design Reviewer

Rights to perform the ‘Design Documentation Check’ activity of the Design Verification Workflow.

The Design Reviewer verifies and reviews designs making sure they are conform to the CERN design standards, inspects them, and adds annotations in a viewer without necessarily needing access to a CAD system.

Equipment Owner

Rights to perform the ‘Part Design Approval’ activity of the Design Verification Workflow.

The Equipment Owner is responsible for checking that the requirements of the design are met.

Senior Integrator

Rights to launch ‘Valid for Integration’, ‘Approved by Integration’ and ‘Release for Integration’ workflows.
