Method for identifying and displaying operator accesses to process objects within the scope of process management and process monitoring, wherein - at least one operator server (2, 3) of a process control system has a process image, which is provided with process image modules associated with process objects, - at least one automation device is provided with automation modules associated with the process objects, - for process monitoring a user interface is provided with block symbols (13, 18) of system images which are associated with the process objects, - for process management the user interface is provided with faceplates associated with the process objects, - in order to open system images for representation on a display for the respective system image, a node (8, 9) which can be selected by a user is stored in an image hierarchy and/or in an equipment hierarchy, wherein the system image comprises graphical image symbols and the block symbols associated with the process objects, characterised in that - a first component of the operator server (2, 3) is used to determine the process objects from project-planning data of an engineering system of the process control system, - a second component of the operator server is used to reproduce the alarms of the respective process objects on an alarm tag of the process image module associated with the respective process object, wherein the alarms indicate process malfunctions and these are transmitted to the operator server by means of the automation modules of the automation device, - the nodes (8, 9) in the image hierarchy and/or the equipment hierarchy are marked by means of the first component, which comprise an alarm-giving process object, wherein in the event that an operator selects a node (8, 9) of this type, this node (8, 9) is marked with a further identifier. - at least one operator server (2, 3) of a process control system has a process image, which is provided with process image modules associated with process objects, - at least one automation device is provided with automation modules associated with the process objects, - for process monitoring a user interface is provided with block symbols (13, 18) of system images which are associated with the process objects, - for process management the user interface is provided with faceplates associated with the process objects, - in order to open system images for representation on a display for the respective system image, a node (8, 9) which can be selected by a user is stored in an image hierarchy and/or in an equipment hierarchy, wherein the system image comprises graphical image symbols and the block symbols associated with the process objects, characterised in that - a first component of the operator server (2, 3) is used to determine the process objects from project-planning data of an engineering system of the process control system, - a second component of the operator server is used to reproduce the alarms of the respective process objects on an alarm tag of the process image module associated with the respective process object, wherein the alarms indicate process malfunctions and these are transmitted to the operator server by means of the automation modules of the automation device, - the nodes (8, 9) in the image hierarchy and/or the equipment hierarchy are marked by means of the first component, which comprise an alarm-giving process object, wherein in the event that an operator selects a node (8, 9) of this type, this node (8, 9) is marked with a further identifier.
