is there a way to shut off a doctype so that no more documents can be loaded but any in there already can still be retrieved?

[Bill_Claman]

one of our groups requested that a particular docType they have be stopped from allowing any further documents loaded to it so that their users would have to use the one that was created as a replacement (before I got here - not sure of the history).  I am not seeing an option in the configuration of Document Types to change only that function  (ver 13 -> via Fiserv Director config if it matters)

anyone have any ideas on how to accomplish that?

Hi Bill,

You can accomplish this with Override privileges (under the "Document Types" section of the User Groups & Rights section in Config).  From here, you can revoke the create privilege by user group for just that particular document type.  You can also prevent re-index, etc.  There's more info in the Sys Admin MRG about override privileges and how they work.  Hope this helps.

thanks - I just found that too... I was just hoping to not have to modify every group that has access to it as opposed to changing it one time from the docType side.
