Selecting a scope

Selecting a scope allows you to specify the vault objects and functions that you want to work with in the current Meridian Enterprise session. If any scopes are defined in a vault, you must select one when opening the vault for the first time. Thereafter, you may select a different scope that more closely meets your needs. If only one scope is defined for a vault, is it selected automatically. You may select only a scope for which you have the Can Use privilege for the scope.

To select a scope:

• In the toolbar, select a scope name from the scope list. The vault objects and commands that are not available for the selected scope disappear. The vault objects and commands that have been configured for the selected scope appear.

To select a scope:

• On the View menu, point to Change Scope.

Or

1. Click the current scope name button in the Context bar. A shortcut menu of scope names appears. Scopes for which you do not have the scope’s Can Use privilege are cleared.
2. Select a scope name. The vault objects and commands that are not available for the selected scope disappear. The vault objects and commands that have been configured for the selected scope appear.
