Some document folders may include documents that only selected people should have access to. Own permissions can be defined for folders so as to allow only these people to access the documents in the folder.
1. To set own permissions for a folder, create a new or edit an existing one. Fill in the check-box for This folder has its own permissions and click Set permissions.
Info: Only the person who is responsible for the folder can set permissions in the folder.
2. Select the group with the members that should have access to the folder. If none of the groups are suitable you can create a new user group in the control panel.
Note: The members of the group selected are granted the permissions set for the document folder. If you are not sure which group is suitable, you can find out who the members of the groups are on the control panel.
3. Click Enable permissions for this group and choose the permissions that the group should have. Click Save when you are finished.
Info: Multiple user groups can have different permissions in a document folder. To set up permissions for another group, select the group in the Select group field and choose the permissions for the group.
4. If a user is member of several user groups that grant permissions in the document module, the permissions of the groups are summarized. Go back to the Form-tab and click Overwrite all other permissions, with the permissions set for this folder so that only members of the selected groups have access to documents in the folder. Click Save or Save and close form when you are finished.
