# About Location Update permissions

- Can Create Internal Locations - permission to create an internal Location.

  As Groups are always internal, it is required for a user to be able to create a group.

  It is also required for a user to be able to change a Location from external to internal.

  It is also required to copy an internal Location.

- Can Modify Internal Locations - permission to modify any of the metadata associated with an internal Location.

  Note that the login and security profile is further restricted and an extra permission is required to modify that data including any associations that the Location has. Location Properties fields are greyed out if the user does not have this modify permission.

- Limited Modification of Internal Locations - permission to:
  - Annotate notes if Location is otherwise read-only and internal
  - Modify fields on Location properties General tab if Location is otherwise read-only and internal
  - Modify fields on Location properties Address tab if Location is otherwise read-only and internal
  - Modify fields on Location properties Person tab if Location is otherwise read-only and internal

    NOTE: The permission Limited Modification of Internal Locations enables a user to modify the tabs General, Electronic Addresses and Notes for an internal Location's properties.

- Can Delete Internal Locations - permission to delete an internal Location.

  Note that a user needs the permission Modify Logins and User Profiles to delete a Location that has a login.

- Can Create External Locations - permission to create an external Location.

  It is also required to copy an external Location.

- Can Modify External Locations - permission to modify any of the metadata associated with an external Location
- Can Delete External Locations - permission to delete an external Location.

  Note that a user needs the permission Modify Logins and User Profiles to delete a Location that has a login.

- View User Profile Details - permission to view the security profile and permissions of another user.

  This applies to the following properties in addition to the Profile tab of the Location Properties:

  - Accept logins for this user, using credentials
  - Until Expiry Date
  - Security
  - User Type
  - Permissions
- Modify Logins And User Profiles - permission to change the login details, security profile or permissions of a user.

  If the Location has a login, you need this permission to delete it or make any changes to any of the data in its properties Associations tab, for example, Member Of.

  Users with this permission can modify or create logins within the limit of their own security profile.

  Users with the additional permission Security and Audit Administrator can also modify user profiles so that they can set another Location to have security/caveats outside their own security limitations.

- Modify your own user information - this permission allows users to modify their own user information from the Profile option from the File menu (or by double clicking their user name in the Content Manager window). Users that do not have this permission but have Modify Internal Locations or Modify Internal Locations (Limited) will still be able to modify some of their own user information. If a user does not have this permission or either of the Modify Internal Locations permissions they will get a read only view of their profile.

  When this permission is enabled, user can also modify their own notes.
