This report presents changes in file permissions for individual groups, offering filtering options like permission type (viewing, printing, saving, managing), group, user who enacted the change, document name, and specified time period.
- Comparison of access rights to files
This report enables you to compare selected permissions for the folder and document structure (i.e., viewing, printing, or saving) among existing VDR groups.
For example, if you want to verify whether you correctly specified viewing permissions for Group A's folder structure before inviting its participants into the process, you can compare its permissions with the VDR Admin group, which has full access to the content. (gif. 1)
