Users can be given read-only or edit permissions to draft HTML documents on an individual basis allowing them access to a document while changes are being made. This feature can be helpful when an Admin does not want to give full access to a user for all documents in a document type but would like their input on one or a few documents.
How to Grant Read Only Permissions to Users
Read only permissions allows a user to view a draft document. The user will not be able to make edits. The documents will display on the Policy Listing and Work In Progress screen for the user.
Note: If a user is given permission in multiple policy types, they will be able to switch between them using the drop-down menu on the Work In Progress screen.
- Hover of the Policies tab
- Click on Work In Progress
- Select Policy Type in the drop-down menu
- Click on Select Users under the Read-Only Permissions column for the document you wish to grant permissions to
- A pop-up box will open listing all users, select user(s)
- When finished, click Save and Close
Note: You will not be able to click on Save and Close until a user is selected.
How to Grant Edit Permissions to Users
Edit permissions allows a user to view, edit, and save changes to a document. The documents will display on the Policy Listing and Work In Progress screen for the user.
Note: If a user is given permission in multiple policy types, they will be able to switch between them using the drop-down menu on the Work In Progress screen.
