Abstract:
The present disclosure includes systems and methods that provide a control that enables entry of a user and a catalog item. In response to this entry, a visual representation of the categorized hierarchy of the catalog item and categories (collectively “catalog entities”) to which the catalog item belongs are displayed. Each displayed catalog entity may include a visual indication of whether the catalog entity is accessible to the user. In some embodiments, the displayed catalog entity may include a control that enables or disables access to the catalog entity. The displayed catalog entity may also include a control that displays user groupings that have access or do not have access to that displayed catalog entity. An indication of whether the user belongs to each user grouping may also be displayed. Each displayed user group may include a control that enables modification to the definition of the displayed user grouping.
