Access Controls for Records

NOTE: Users require the appropriate user permissions to complete particular tasks, e.g. Inquiry users will not be able to Update Record Metadata even if they are a part of the Access Control.
Users that have Administrator access or who have the Bypass all Access Controls user permissions will bypass these security restrictions.

TIP: Web Client supports bulk update of access control list. Select the checkbox next to Details in Add or modify access control and then select the permission from the Access drop-down. All the access control list will get the same permission as selected in Access drop-down.

- View Document - determines who is allowed to view a document attached to a record and to view its - revisions and renditions.
- View Metadata - determines who is allowed to see the record. If a user is not in this Access Control list, this record will not appear in any search the user does.

- Contribute Contents - determines who is allowed to add contents to the Container, regardless of the Update Record Metadata Access Control settings on the Container.
