- If another MyOSCAR user has shared their record with you, you may be able to view portions of it depending on the role they have assigned to you (see Sharing and Roles). However, you may not know to which role you have been assigned. If you receive an error message while attempting to view or change a portion of another user's record, your role does not allow that action. Click OK and refresh your screen if needed.
