File Cabinet Drawer Roles

Prev Next

File Cabinet Drawer Roles Permissions are a means of restricting the number of users working in a File Cabinet Drawer in Document Management.

From Administration > Document Management > File Cabinet Drawer Roles, you can select a File Cabinet Role to assign Permissions to perform core operations, such as creating a Folder, viewing/adding/scanning Pages, adding documents to a Request, delivering documents, moving/copying a Folder, reviewing templates, etc.

The administrator assigns these Permissions to users/user groups. The user will inherit all group level Permissions of the user group to which they belong. Permissions can also be assigned to an individual user.
