If the Asset Status is not set to "Deployed", the User must have the Edit Asset User Permissions for at least one of the Contracts associated with the Asset.

If the Status of the Asset is set to "Deployed" the User must have both the "Edit Asset" and "View System Element" User Permissions for at least one of the Contracts associated with the Asset and the corresponding System Element.
