From this sub-menu, the administrator can define and manage the access between the various children versions, as shown in the following example:

[[File:MSM_Versions_Access.png|center|600x400px]]

The left hand part of the Versions window allows the administrator to search for a version by its designation; the full designation is not necessary. The administrator can enter some characters and the search function returns all the entries that contain the typed-in characters. The search results are listed under the '''Search''' button.

After a search, the search button is greyed out until the search criterion is modified.

If the administrator selects an entry in the search result, the version is automatically selected in the Versions table.

=== Editing a Version's Rights ===

Clicking on the "Edit" button [[File:MetisSmartModelingEditButton.PNG|link=]] opens the Version Rights window as shown in the following example:

[[File:MSM_Versions_Access_Edit.png|center|600x400px]]

The title on the window displays the name of selected version (e.g. Version Rights Headquarters where Headquarters is the name of the selected version).

The Versions (Smart Quotes) table displays all the available versions. The displayed versions consist of all of the children versions of the administrator's version.
The authorized column allows the administrator to select / deselect the versions that the Smart Quotes users is authorized to access to.

The following example describes the cases where a version can have access to the projects and offers made in other versions:

An administrator of Version A can define that the Version A users can have access to the direct children versions' projects and offers (i.e. Version B, Version C and Version D). However, Version A users cannot access Version E's projects and offers because Version E is not a direct child of Version A.

The administrator of Version A can also define that Version B users can have access to Version C's projects and offers but not to Version D's projects and offer. The same administrator could also define that Version C users can only have access to Version B's projects and offers.

The authorization is not bi-directional: if Version B users have access to Version C's projects and offers, Version C users do not automatically receive access to Version B's projects and offers. The administrator must set the authorizations for each version.

=== Previewing a Version's Rights ===

Clicking on the "Preview" button [[File:MetisSmartModelingPreviewButton.PNG|link=]] opens the Version Rights window as shown in the following example:

In this window, only the authorized versions are displayed. This means that if a version is not authorized to see the projects or the offers or at least one other version, the table is empty as shown in the following example:
