Permissions

In the Permissions tab you can configure default permissions to view and create documents in the category:

Setup document category permissions

In the Allow to create for field you can limit permissions for users who will be able to assign new documents to this category. In default configuration all Worker users are allowed to do this. If you want to restrict this permission only to particular users, you need to remove the default entry and add the permitted users by name

In the Show in registry for (additionally) field you can define additional list of users who can see given category in the Registry (users mentioned in the Allow to create for field, are already permitted to do it). To change this permission, you need to remove the default entry and add the permitted users by name.

The Permissions config field defines the default permissions list, that is applied to newly created documents in the given category. This list is empty, because by default only users assigned to the inbox where the document is uploaded receive the permission to this document. To extend this list to other users, that should get the permissions for documents in given category as well, add the permitted users by name.

The detailed information about each option is always displayed after clicking icon, which is located next to the field label.
