Viewing and Editor Modes of Views

In QPR UI, a view may be seen in two modes: viewing mode and editor mode. In addition, a view can be either in locked or unlocked state.

  • Viewing mode is in use when:
    • Administrators group has been configured to QPR UI and a viewer role user opens the view, because user doesn't have permissions to edit the view.
    • The opened view is locked, because locked views cannot be edited.
  • Editor mode is in use when:
    • Administrators group has been configured to QPR UI and an administrator role user opens an unlocked view.
    • Administrators group has not been configured (i.e. all users are administrators), and the opened view is unlocked.

See more about permissions.
