5.3.1 Impact of permission changes in Records Manager

When the permission of a host user in Records Manager changes, the change is

not reflected in Content Manager until the permission synchronization process

runs.

For example, WBUSER at one point does not have

Host Retrieve permission in

Records Manager. Now a record administrator grants WBUSER the

Host

Retrieve

permission. This change should entitle WBUSER to see the declared

document described for Figure 5-30. However, the user will not be able to see the

document until the permission synchronization process runs. This process is

responsible for synchronizing the changes in Records Manager back into

Content Manager.

You can run permission synchronization from the Records Enabler administration

client. There are two ways to run the process. You can schedule the permission

synchronization process or you can run it on demand. See Figure 5-32.
