Hi @FC_9723361 

I see the root  case.

Your ACL rules define the Deny rules directly on the user. So others rules are rewritten.

The MINUS means Deny. So your ACL definition contains a users level ACL definition that rewrites all upper rules from domains.

Change it and the user will get the Revise rights.

Blocking revise can be done in ACLs and also in the Lifecycle definition. Can you post copies of both here? For clarity, you are seeing that its not possible to revise in Draft, but option is greyed out?

Hi @FC_9723361 

It would be nice to see your OIR configuration.

 

There are more rules for controlling the revision action then just ACL definition

 

I am not sure if you can control the revise action directly from the OIR .

- I guess that you have to have correct LifeCycle Template configuration, where the revise transaction is allowed,

- then ACL create has to be granted to the user in the target state where the new revision will be placed

- check the profile configuration if you use profiles.

Hi,

What is your business requirement?

 

Based on that we can go for an approach.

 

Usually Revision action is allowed for only "Released" objects. (Subject to the access control the user has) Sometimes, it too can be hidden in UI and only possible by a Change Notice.

There are many ways to achieve what you need (Business Requirement).

Cheers

Hari

My business requirement is:

 

if the epm document is "Approved" Revise icon should be hidden

if the epm document is in "Draft" Revise icon should be visible.

 

Now is set in this way by acl rules, but in "draft" status Revise icon is hidden however

Tests you can do: Add "&jcaDebug=true" to the end of the URL on the EPMDocument page you are viewing in Draft. You will see a bunch of lady bugs appear. Click the actions drop down and see why the action is being disabled. It should say the validator or filter that disabled it.

Second, in the policy administrator, there is a "View Access Control Lists" where you can see a summary of the ACLS by object and state. See if something is off there, perhaps by user groups or deny rights.

Lastly, we should check the lifecycle template for your EPMDocument. Do you have Revise checked? This is showing its allowed in my In Work state but my ACLs only allows admin to do that.
