Hi John
In EDocman, there are few levels of permissions setting :
1. Component Permission. Go to EDocman, Dashboard, click on Options button in the toolbar and you will be able to setup this permission.
2. Category level : This permission setting will be setup when you add/edit a category. If you leave the permission as Inherited, it will inherit the permission settin from component permission setting.
3. Sub-categories level : This is the same with Category level except that it is for sub-categories. When you leave permission as Inherited, this category will inherit permission from it directly parent category.
3. Document Level : This permission setting will be setup when you add/edit a document. If you leave it as Inherited, it will inherit permission from the category it is assigned to. In case you leave all permission levels as inherited, it will inherit permission from Component Permission setting.
Hope my explanation is clear to you .
Regards,
Tuan
