Permission Groups
A permission group is a set of users with the same access right settings that are managed together in the AgilePoint NX system. You can manage permission groups for all entities in Manage Center, or individual entities in Data Entities. Some permission groups, such as edit or read permissions, only apply to the individual entity level.
For information about configuring permission groups, refer to Permission Groups, Roles, and Task Participants.

These are the entity statuses for Data Entities. The entity status specifies whether the entity can be used as a data source for apps.
Good to Know
