	== Prevent Removing Own Access ==		== Prevent Removing Own Access ==
	QPR ProcessAnalyzer has a protection mechanism to prevent users from accidentally removing their own access rights. If it was be possible, the only adminstrator user could remove the own permission, and after that no users can access the system. If there is a need to perform the blocked operations, another adminstrator user is needed.

	~~Following operations are not allowed (due to the risk of removing own access rights):~~
	* Users can not remove global roles from themselves.
	* Users can not inactivate themselves.
	* Users can not leave user group if it has global roles assigned (if the user doesn't directly have the global administrator role).
	* Users can not remove global roles from the group if they are in that group (if the user doesn't directly have the global administrator role).
	* Users can not delete groups with global roles if they are in that group (if the user doesn't directly have the global administrator role).

	QPR ProcessAnalyzer has a built-in protection mechanism to prevent users from inadvertently revoking their own access rights. If this were possible, the last administrator could inadvertently remove their own permissions, leaving no one able to manage permissions. To perform operations that are blocked for this reason, another administrator user is required.
