At its core, the purpose of Guardian is the assignment of privileges. The Assignment screen
creates the links between Provider and Privileges so when Guardian publishes, all of the
providers' privileges are listed.
The Assignment screen is made up of four main sections, labeled below:
Available Privileges
The Available Privileges list shows all privileges that exist in Guardian. This list can be rather long
(Guardian comes with over 2000 privileges pre-installed). Using the Filter Bar
on the far left of the
screen or Filter As You Type
in the list will help located the desired privileges quickly and easily.
Both individual privileges and Bundles (designated with the 
icon) are shown in the available
privileges list.
Assigned Privileges
The Assigned Privileges list shows all privileges that are currently assigned to the selected
provider.
Privilege Details
The Privilege Details section of the Assignment tab shows detailed information about a privilege
selected in either list. This information changes as different privileges are selected.
Controls
The Controls section provides the buttons needed to assign and un-assign privileges.
Add Privilege Adds the privilege currently selected in the Available Privileges list to the
selected provider's Assigned Privileges list. This will cause the selected privilege to be assigned
to the provider throughout the Guardian system. If the privilege is a bundle, adds all associated
privileges also.
Remove Privilege Removes the privilege selected in the Assigned Privileges list. This
will cause the selected privilege to be unassigned from the provider. If the privilege is a bundle, it
removes all privileges that are part of the bundle.
Remove All Privileges Removes all privileges from the selected provider, whether or not
they are part of a bundle.
Provider Image Thumbnail Displays a small photo of the selected provider for visual
reference. Clicking on the thumbnail will display a full sized photo.
