Delete a doctype or condition

You can delete a document type or a condition from the Access Manager window.

Important: Make configuration changes in a test environment and confirm they work before copying them to a production environment. For dedicated SaaS deployments, test the changes and then ask IXIA CCMS Customer Support to copy the changes to your production environment.

  1. In TEXTML Administration perspective, right-click the Content Store node and select CCMS Admin > Manage Access.

    The doctypes and conditions configured for that action appear.
  4. Choose one of the following actions:
    • To delete a doctype, right-click the document type and select Delete Type.
    • To delete a condition, in the Conditions list, right-click the condition and select Delete Condition.
  5. Save your changes locally (CTRL+s).
  6. Click check in manager icon Check In Document:.
    Your changes to accessrights.xml are updated in the repository.
  7. Inform users of the changes.
    The changes will be applied automatically once users close and then reopen their CCMS Desktop. Users can also apply the changes without restarting their CCMS Desktop by clicking IXIA CCMS > Synchronize Configuration. Additionally, refresh IXIA CCMS Web so that users will see the change reflected there.
