Restrict to modify Attributes

[ColruytTeam]

Hello All,
 Iam looking a way to restrict User to modify all Attributes (Or attributes on Characteristic tab) of an object, When one of the attribute has certain value to validate.

Thanks
Sashi.

Hi Jerome,

Thanks for your reply. I also feel that moving to HOPEX is indeed the best solution so we can make use of the CRUD settings.

Kind Regards

Hello stijn

If understand, you requirements are more complex and it may be difficult to implement them with UpdateTool macro only.

It seem to me that implementing workflow to clearly manage status of objects and permission (CRUD) regarding these status can be a solution. The HOPEX platform enables this.

Jerome,

the issue is that if the metaattribute type has value AAAA the user is allowed to change the object. However if the value is BBBB the user is not allowed to modify it. the types are a list of metaattributevalues.

with the metaAttributeUpdateTool we get a long way, however our script is not executed when the user clicks the ok button instead of the apply button.

regards

stijn

Hello Sashi

With HOPEX, you can

Define specific permission (CRUD: Create Read Update Delete):

• For a given MetaAttribute of a MetaClass
• For a given user profile.

If you have implemented a workflow (workflow definition), you can even define specific permission

• For a given MetaAttribute of a MetaClass
• For a given user profile.
• For a given State (worfkflow status) of the object
