Adding Materials by User | Users can add materials or products into folders in the GoldFFX application. | This process is considered as a self-registration, where user adds an SDS into a folder. | Users must have read-write permission |
Note that only users with read-write permission can add materials to the respective folders. The Chemwatcher
module is accessible to the administrator of the system within your organisation by default. For users who do not have access the Chemwatcher module may contact their administrator for more details.
Before adding a material into a folder, consider the following types of roles a user may have.
