Use the following rules and guidelines when you configure permissions:
When you configure permissions on a resource or metadata object, child objects of the resource or metadata object inherit the permissions of the parent object.
You cannot configure permissions on logical groups in the metadata catalog. For example, logical groups for an Oracle resource include the Indexes, Procedures, Tables, and Views groups. Metadata Manager groups all tables under the Tables logical group. You can configure permissions on the individual tables, but not on the Tables logical group.
