As the administrator, you can set up at any time - including at runtime - up to 128 user groups each containing up to 128 individual users and assign them appropriate access rights to WinCC functions.A total of  999 access rights is possible. WinCC‘s SIMATIC Logon option even gives you central, plantwide user management

Message System 
Minimize downtimes – by means of alarms and messages

SIMATIC WinCC doesn‘t just acquire process messages and local events, it also stores them in circular archives and then makes them available as desired on a filtered or sorted basis.
Messages can be derived from individual bits, can be a result of an alarm message frame directly from the automation system or of analog alarms in the case of out of limit conditions.
Individual acknowledgement procedures, a freely definable message structure and configurable archiving as well as logging of messages are additional features

High-performance archiving for messages and measured values

Reporting and Logging System

WinCC has an integrated logging system that you can use to print data from WinCC or from other applications.This system prints data that was acquired at runtime in configurable layouts by means of different types of logs: from message sequence logs through system message logs and operator logs up to user reports.Before printing reports, you can save them as files and preview them on the monitor.
WinCC logs can also contain data from the database and external data in CSV format as a table or a curve in a log.
