Lab Resources Can Do

• Initially, only the Lab Master is able to modify lab resources, however, the Can Do resource allows the Lab Master to delegate responsibility for individual resources to lab members.
• A single lab member can be assigned responsibility for multiple resources and multiple lab members can be responsible for the same resource.
• The Lab Master retains permission for all resources at all times.
• The Lab Master can also use the Ca Do resource to allow other lab members to generate some of the controlled reports, and XML dumps containing all of the records for a particular item type.
