Update or Delete an ACT

CAUTION:
One ACT can protect thousands of items. Changes that you make to an ACT's pattern affect every item that ACT is applied to.
CAUTION:
When you delete an ACT, you lose all of that ACT's associations to items where it is applied. Creating a new ACT with the same name does not restore those associations.
  1. On the Plug-ins tab of SAS Management Console, navigate to Authorization Managerthen selectAccess Control Templates and select an ACT.
  2. To modify the ACT's pattern:
    1. Right-click and select Properties.
    2. Adjust settings on the Permission Pattern tab.
      Note: Do not confuse an ACT's Authorization tab with its Permission Pattern tab. Settings on an ACT's Authorization tab affect who can access that ACT; settings on an ACT's Permission Pattern tab affect access to the items to which that ACT is applied.
    3. Click OK to save your changes.
    4. (Optional) Navigate to the Properties dialog box of an item that uses this ACT and verify that the revised settings are as you expect. On the Authorization tab of an item to which an ACT is applied, settings that are explicit white check box in the ACT's pattern are green green check box.
