Issues security commands
The Add Issues and Edit Issues commands must be enabled to use many of the features controlled by the following commands.
The See Tab commands are only useful if the Add Issues, Edit Issues, or View Issues commands are enabled.
Keep in mind that the navigation for accessing commands in the Helix ALM web client is different than the desktop client, but command security enabled in the desktop client applies to the same commands in the web client.
