[Solved] Problem : Create a new role

[emmanuel]

Hi everybody,

I'm working on the alfresco project for my company, and it seems to be very powerful. But, however , I got some trouble … Let me explain:

I want to have a workflow (not very difficult, for this step  :wink: )
So I have 3 folders:
  => "Drafts
  => "Pending approval"
  => "Published"

So, I have 3 groups:
  => "Writers"
  => "Approvers"
  => "Administrators"

Indeed, I want the writers to request an approval for a document, but not TO BE ABLE OF VIEWING THE FOLDER "Pending approval".

That's my problem, it seems that there is no solution except creating a new role. So, I decided to create a role, in order to write in a folder where the user cannot read.

In the permissionsDefinition.xml, i had the following:

<!– Rajout d'une permission permettant l'ajout de documents dans un dossier sur lequel, l'utilisateur n'a pas de droit de lecture –>
      <permissionGroup name="Redacteur" allowFullControl="false" expose="true">
    <!– <includePermissionGroup permissionGroup="Read" type="sys:base" /> –>
     <includePermissionGroup permissionGroup="AddChildren" type="sys:base" />
     <includePermissionGroup permissionGroup="Write" type="sys:base" />
     <includePermissionGroup permissionGroup="CheckOut" type="cm:lockable" />
      </permissionGroup>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

But, it still doesn't work! I don't wee where I could have done a mistake!

If someone has a solution, I hope for a lot of help  :cry:

P.S: I have already tried to create a "temp" folder, where i created a copy rule, but it doesn't work too…

Thanks.

Hi,

i've read the thread http://forums.alfresco.com/viewtopic.php?t=3466&highlight=

but still can not implement a solution for the writer role to be able to send to approval on a space that already has a rule. Actually i understand the problem as explainded by RivetLogic.

I've tried the interim solution but cannot make it work, actually it's not clear to me. In this solution Writers can see interim folder, can't they?
can u better explain how to setup this solution (each folder with their rules, and user roles) please.
Thanks a lot!
