Permissions changed

This dialog box appears when you change the permissions of a folder in the Metadata dialog box. This change also affects all documents and child folders in the folder. Specify what effects this change should have.

Please note: The changes do not affect references, since they retain the permission settings of the original entry.

Choose from the following options:

Do not pass on permissions: The changes are not applied to the documents and child folders in the folders.

Pass on permissions to child entries: All permissions are passed on to the entries in the folder.

Only apply changes, keep other permissions: Only permissions are passed on that result in changes to permissions for the documents and child folders in the folder.

Apply to: Using the drop-down menu, select whether to apply the changes to all child entries or only folders/documents.

OK: Click OK to save your selection. The dialog box closes.

Cancel: Click Cancel to cancel the action.
