Document Domain

How can I implement the following security setting - There are two document domains. The user will have full privilege in doc domain #1 but the privilege ‘Send document to repository’ should be truned off for document domain #2 and for that user. Any insight ?

Abhijit,

We also had similar requirement. But it is not possible to Disable/enable this command for specific domains.

What I would suggest is a little bit round about. Create two security domain, perhaps with same set of users. Depending on which sec-domain they connect to they will have ‘Send to repository’ privilege or not.

This will involve a lot of maintenance though.

I have been doing some maintenance on the Document domain because there were 100’s of documents out there that I thought had never been retrieved. After asking users to clean up after themselves I decided to take care of it my self. I know there are 3 types of documents - Processed, user, and repository. I know repository documents are those that have been published at any level. I thought the processed and user documents I was seeing in Supervisor/Tools/Delete documents were those that had been processed by the BCA or sent from one user to another and were never retrieved although I found this to be incorrect. I found documents (viewing the properties) with my user name associated, yet I had no documents to be retrieved. Can someone explain what it is I am seeing in the document domain in relation to processed and user documents.

Thanks for your help, Jeff

I believe user documents are those sent from 1 user to another. I believe processed docs are those sent by the BCA to a user.

Hi All,

Pl bear with me. I am new to BO. So I have some doubts to be cleared.

When does a document go to the doc. domain.I know that when we save a document it goes to the Userdocs folder. Or does the document go the doc. domain when we say Send to user or Publish to Corp.docs.

All help is appreciated.

Thanks all

That’s right.

When you save a document it saves it to your hard drive in whatever directory you specify.
Sending it to a user or Publishing to Corp Documents saves it in the Document Domain of the repository.

ok, as long as we’re on this - why do some corp docs end up on the hard drive of the webi server, under storage\documents?

is this a caching thing??

thanks,
brent

That’s probably because you’ve saved corp documents in your personal documents section in WEBI.

no, not under the indivual’s folders (storage\mail, storage\user), but like up under storage\docs\domain_name…

this make sense?

Brent,

It is my understanding that this is where all documents that have been accessed by any WebI user is stored. This way the document is not pulled in from the doc domain every time it is hit. If it is already accessible on the Web server and no changes to the document have been made in repository then the current version on the Web server is used. This is why the first user the access a document takes the hit and must sit through the initial download. I am speaking specifically about full client doc’s, I’m not familiar with Web developed documents. I hope this helps.

It’s not just that… any corporate document has to be on the webi server in order to be viewed. You cannot “view” a document that is stored in the document domain. The domain is a storage area (file cabinet). You have to take the document out of storage and put it somewhere (on a desk?) in order to view it. That’s where the corporate docs on the webi server hard drives come from.
