Restricting File Cabinet Folders by Static Group

edited Mar 8, 2023 10:04PM in Ask A Guru 3 comments

Hello NS Community,

I am currently testing using Static Groups to restrict access to specific File Cabinet folders. However, I can still access it even if I am not included in the group. I am also using a non-Administator role, and have assigned the group ownership to a different Employee.

Here are the steps I took:

  1. Create a new Static Group for Employees
  2. Add employees to the group, except myself, and re-assign the group ownership to a different employee.
  3. Set the group to Private, and RESTRICT GROUP EDITING TO OWNER = T
  4. Create the File Cabinet folder then assign the created group in the Restrict by Group field.
