Overview

Access control checking, which is set by the Document Manager administrator, is enabled per project (library). Each project has a setting that indicates whether access control checking is performed at the project level, folder level, or document level. If access control checking is set at the project level, then all checks, even of documents, are performed at that level. By default, access control checking is set at the document level. You might want to adjust the level to fit your organization's access control model. For example, some companies control access to documents by folder, while others control access at the individual document level. The access control setting allows you to adjust the level of checking to fit your usage.

To change the level of access control checking, run the following SQL Statement on the PDM database (wpcp50).

    UPDATE PROJECTS 
    SET AUTHLEVEL='P' 
    WHERE NAME='projectName'

Valid values for AUTHLEVEL are as follows. The value is always an uppercase letter.

P Project level
F Folder level
D Document level
