How to grant Edit Access Permissions on specific fields

NOTE: You must be the administrator of your SoftMouse.NET account to grant Access Permissions.

You are able to grant a user Edit access on specific fields (Genotype, Comment, Physical Tag, and Ear Mark)  if they currently have View Only access. To review How to grant View Only Access Permissions, please click here.

• Select individual Mouselines if you want to grant the user edit access to specific Mouselines
6. In the fourth drop-down list, select the field you want the user to edit --- Genotype, Comment, Physical Tag and Ear mark are the specific fields the user can edit
