One that has the so-called mandatory fields set to enforced="False", so that these fields are no longer actually mandatory and the aspect can be added to content w/o an exception being thrown. The other copy of the aspect has the properties set to enforced="True" and is manually created and populated by a script when the content is moved.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>As this sort of detail does not appear to be documented anywhere, I would very much appreciate some confirmation from the Alfresco devs that this is indeed the best (only?) way to go.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Mon, 19 Mar 2007 22:41:38 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/validity-of-an-aspect-esp-mandatory-fields/m-p/62578#M39066 rtl 2007-03-19T22:41:38Z
