You control who can set permissions on database objects via ownerships — every object has an owner, which is one of the
Users in the database. Except for root administrators, only the owner can change a database object’s permissions. The user that creates an object is automatically set as its initial owner.
Click Owner (
) in the
Permissions section of the
Database toolbar. The
Owner dialog box is opened for the current selection in
The Databases Window or
The Model Manager Window (depending on which window is focused).
The Database field shows the label of the database that the object belongs to, the
Name field shows the name of the object, and the
Current owner field shows the username of the user that owns the object. Under
New Owner, write the name or display name of the user to transfer ownership to in the search field. Click
Search. Select one of the users in the table and click
OK to save the new ownership.
