Permissions
Permissions in Docwize determine what a user or group can see and/or do. Permissions can be assigned to groups or to users.
A foundation of permissions is established via the group(s) to which a user belongs. Groups can be created based on the level of access granted to a type of user. Users can belong to multiple groups, similarly to how a person in a company may belong to different teams of people.
When creating a group, one can select which folders the group can access. This indicates the scope of permission, or document access, the users in the group have. Permissions inherited by groups appear greyed out in the permissions page of a user. Additional permissions can be granted on a user-basis. In other words, there can be case-by-case customisation of what a user can do and/or see in Docwize.
You can access the 'Permissions' Page via the 'Settings' icon from either the Users or Groups sections in the Admin Console.
