Add Assignment allows you to add a security rights assignment for a group or user to a specific folder in a repository. See Security Access Rights for more information on folder access rights.
Rights can only be assigned by folder if the security rights are enabled for the repository (go to the Repositories tab and click Properties to enable).
To open this dialog box, go to the Users tab, select a user and click on Security Rights, then click on Add Assignments. Or, go to the Groups tab, select a group and click on Security Rights, then click on Add Assignments.
Repository
Repository is a list of all repositories that have folder security enabled. Type or select the repository you want to be displayed in the Folder Tree.
Folder Tree
The Folder Tree of the selected repository is displayed. When a folder is selected in the tree, the Assign Rights checkboxes are updated to reflect the rights of the selected folder.
Assign Rights
The Assign Rights checkbox allows you to modify the rights of the user or group.
The Rights checkboxes can be either:
• Checked – The user or group has a right that was assigned at the selected folder level in the tree.
• Intermediate Checked (gray check) – The user or group has a right that was inherited from another folder or group (for uses) or default. The right was not assigned at the selected folder level.
• Unchecked – The user or group has no right at the folder level.
Select the rights to assign to the selected folder. You can assign rights to a folder, then select another folder to assign rights. However, assigning these rights does not update the database until the user clicks OK.
OK
Click OK to add the assigned rights to the selected folders. The new assignments will overwrite any assignments that already exist for the selected folder.
Close
Click Close to exits the Add Assignment dialog box and return to previous screen.
