The Folder Tree of the selected repository is displayed. When a folder is selected in the tree, the Rights Table is updated to reflect the rights of the selected folder and the Edit Rights checkboxes are updated to reflect the Rights Table selection.

The Rights Table is a table of all users and all groups, and displays the actual rights for the selected folder for each user and group. The rights for a user or group are determined based on actual rights assignments, inherited rights from a higher level, or default rights. See Folder Security Rightsfor the rules applied when determining rights at a specific folder.

The list can be sorted by clicking the column heading. The sort can be reversed by clicking the column heading a second time. The default sort is alphabetically on the User column.

The Rights Table has the following columns:

The name of the user/group whose rights are shown in this row.

The rights of the user or group for the selected folder in the Folder Tree.

Clicking this link will cause a drop-down menu to appear in the rights column.  The appropriate level can be selected, and then saved by clicking update.

This link describes the repository path by which the user’s rights were assigned to the current folder.  There are four ways that a user can obtain rights to a folder:

The user has no assignment to the folder or any of its parents.  The user’s default Folder Security rights will be used.

The user has a direct assignment to this folder.  Directly assigning rights to a user will automatically create a link that enables the Administrator to delete the assignment.

The user has a direct assignment to a parent of this folder.

The user belongs to a group which has a direct assignment to the folder or a parent of the folder.

If making changes to a group’s folder rights, it is recommended that the group folder rights changes are applied before making folder rights changes for individual users. Users can inherit their rights from a group and changing a group’s rights may affect user rights.

The Edit Rights column allows you to modify the rights of a specific user or group. The values match the selected user or group. Clicking the icon in the edit column will cause a drop-down menu to appear in the neighboring rights column.  Click Update to add the assigned rights to the selected folder.
