View project inventory

Any user (not just one with a project role) can view the Project Inventory tab and the associated inventory details.

Edit/create project inventory

The Reviewer role has limited inventory-editing capabilities on the Project Inventory tab. Reviewers can neither edit nor add new inventory (that is, the Edit and Add buttons are not available). However, reviewers can recall inventory and edit inventory priority, review status, alerts, as-found license text, and notes (except detection notes).

* The Observer role is available for only projects defined as “Private”. Only Observers, the Project Owner, Analysts, and Reviewers have access to the “Private” project to which they are assigned. The Observer is considered a regular user, restricted to viewing project inventory and generating reports for the “Private Project”.
