IBM Enterprise Records, Version 5.1.2    

Modifying security privileges for the Records Users role

Modify the security settings so that a user assigned to the Records User role can create a version of a document that is declared as a record by another user. This user is also assigned to the Records User role.

About this task

To complete this task, update the security of the appropriate document classes on the FPOS. Before you modify the document classes, run the security script wizard as part of the typical object store configuration process.

The default instance security on the Record Class is set to give the Records Manager User group rights to Minor Versioning and Major Versioning. This setting defines security on the record itself. Users who cannot browse to the document due to container or folder security can still access the record through search or reports.

These classes are the document classes that you must update in the FPOS:
Default
Electronic Record
Email Record
Marker Record
Included with NARA properties
Digital Photography
PDF Record
Scanned Record
Web Record
Custom
Custom subclasses

Procedure

To modify security privileges:

  1. Start IBM® Administration Console for Content Platform Engine as an object store administrator for the FPOS.
  2. Expand the Object Stores node. Select the FPOS that you want to modify, and expand the Document Class node.
