Hi All,
I want to create a knowledge management site in alfresco share.For the site I have to create five types of roles Admin,Knowledge contributor,power user,internal users and external users for alfresco share.
All the user has different  access rights on different functionalities like suppose for document upload functionality the users having admin role   has no privilege ,and the users having power user role have the right of read ,write and modify.
The users having admin role have privilege of (add,view,modify and delete ) functionality for role wise security maintenance(assigning access rights to the roles).and he power user ,external user,internal user has no privilege.
Like this way every role has different type of access right for different functionality.
Please guide me to achieve my requirements.
Also guide me to how to create new roles with help of SDK because I don't want to override  the default core files in alfresco.
I am using alfresco3.4d  in linux environment.
Kindly help me to meet my requirement.

Thanks in advance

Hi Andy,

Thanks for your reply.
Yes  all the roles have the combination of alfresco's basic permission.
But each role is having different access rights for different function.
Suppose the admin has all permission(add,delete,modify,view) for every function in the alfresco so how can I restrict its access rights to only add/add and view/modify in specific functions .
Like wise how can I give  permissions of admin for  users having one role like internal user for few functions.
Please guide me the required changes and steps for change.

Thanks in advance

Hi Andy,

let me clarify my requirement properly.
For the document upload,workflow for publishing document ,default search in share users having  admin  role should not have any previlege .
But usually admin users have access for doing anything.
I want to restrict the access rights for admin for specific functionality.
Similarly  power users have add,view rights in document upload and in the discussion forum it has no previlege.
I don't know how to approach.
Please help me by giving your some valuable comments for my requirements.

thanks

Hi mrogers,

Sorry for my improper explanation regarding the requirements.
My requirement in the simple way is I want to create a site in alfresco share.
I want to create a role like administrator but it has restrictions for some functionalities like  it cannot upload document but delete a document , cann't search,advance search,can't create a new topic,can't reply to the topic,cann't view the topic but it has power to deactivate the new topic in discussion forum.
Basically I want to restrict  few functionality for an admin role.
I think now my requirement has a clear visibilty.
Please mrogers respond to my query and guide me all necessary steps required for fulfilling my requirement.

Thanks in Advance,
Abhashree

Hi mrogers,

I think still you are not getting my requirements properly.
I can explain it once again in a simpler manner.
I want to change the access permissions for admin role.
It should not have privilege for every activity in alfresco .
Please respond to my query as I am not getting any clue.

Thanks in advance,
Abha
