Configure access rights by specialization
The Access Manager window lets you configure access rights by document type only. You can also configure access rights according to specialization, such as bookmap, concept, task, or reference.
You have a lot of flexibility when assigning specialization access rights. When you do, you must repeat the conditions for all the topic specializations, such as concept, task, reference, topic, and glossentry, and then all the map specializations, such as map and bookmap.
The <type name="topic">
no
longer means all the different types of topics it now refers specifically to a
<topic>
document, excluding <reference>
, <concept>
, <task>
, and so
on.
