Document permissions

Once a role is inserted into a document's Document Roles database table, the Document Roles table specifies what system-defined actions users and groups assigned to a Role are allowed to do as the document progresses through its lifecycle. The Document Roles table is determined by these custom metadata types: and Document State Role Permission custom metadata type records.

  • Permission (mvn__CM_Permission__mdt) - grants users or groups of users system-defined actions at either the document or document version level.

  • Document State Role (mvn__CM_Document_State_Role__mdt) - connects the Document State and Role custom metadata types.

  • Document State Role Permission (mvn__CM_Document_State_Role_Permission__mdt) - connects the Document State Role and Permission custom metadata types and grants a Role for a given Document State a specific Permission.

On the Sharing tab of a document record, you can view the list of users and groups that have access to the document. You can also access the Role Permissions matrix for a role to see what permissions that role has for the document.

Permissions

Medical Information Cloud Content Management ships with eleven predefined permissions, which can be found in the Permission (CM_Permission__mdt) custom metadata type. Each permission grants a user or group of users a system-defined action at either the document or document version level. Once granted, document-level permissions give users the ability to perform actions regardless of the document's state. Document version-level permissions are governed by the matrix model of state and permission.

Warning

Do not create, modify, or delete any permission records. Permission records are considered protected system metadata.
