Control access to the DAF
There are several ways you can manage access to documents that need to be audited.
About this task
To simplify administration of the system, it is recommended that you use groups. For example,
some customers define two groups:
- Viewers
- At a minimum, users in the Viewers group are not permitted to audit documents. In addition, some customers create a default logical view so that the audit field does not appear when users in the Viewers group open a document. Other customers define a query restriction so that users in the Viewers group see only documents that have passed an audit.
- Auditors
- The users in the Auditors group are permitted to audit documents. Users in the Auditors group must be given permission to update documents in the application groups that contain documents to be audited.
If the requirements of your system are not met by these two groups, you might need to define additional groups or configure the system differently. Contact the IBM® support center if you have questions about users, groups, or other aspects of administering the system.
