Limitation on DS 7.1 Jobs/Tasks

I need a solution

Hi,

Let me start with a little back history of my problem.  I am the Altiris admin for my company.  We are using DS 7.1  We have around 6500 workstations in our environment.  We have a PC group that manages these workstations.  So in the console I have setup security that allows the tech's to manage only these workstation class machines via Organizational views/AD. One of our tech's accidentally (or so he claims) pushed a very critical piece of software to the entire firm at once, basically causing a very large scale problem in a matter of minutes. 

That being said, I have now been tasked with finding some way to allow the tech's to still manage machines, but not be able to "accidentally" schedule a push of any kind to the entire group at once.  Upper management has basically made it clear that unless we come up with this solution, we will not be using this product any more.  Does anyone have any idea's or best practices, or anything at all that would allow me to accomplish this in some fashion? My only thought was to somehow allow the "quick run" option on jobs/tasks, but not the "schedule" option. Thus allowing all techs to handle "one off' type jobs, and not be able to setup a schedule against a filter or multiple machines, and leave that up to a very small group of people.  However I haven't found a way to accomplish this via the security settings.

This is the first time i've posted on these forums, so forgive me if i forgot sometihng.  Any help would be great. Thanks.
