Hello Community,
for safety reasons we gave write privileges to our different designers only in specific groups per department. They can read in other groups.
Now one of the designers tried to create an assignment to a model in the group of another department and was told that this person did not have the privileges to do so.
Is this standard procedure? is there a way to work around this problem without having to give write privileges to all designers in all groups?
thanks in advance
Bruno
Hi Bruno,
there are two reasons for this behavior. You need write access for the assigned model, because ARIS creates a link also from the model to the object (model properties --> connected objects). And in some cases, a occurence copy of the object is added to the assigned model. For example, if you assign an "Organisationall chart" X to an "Organisational unit" y, a copy of y is created in X.
Therefore you need write access to the object and also to the existing model.
Workaround could be, that someone has write access to all models and can proceed the assignment for all other users, who have not enough rights.

Thanks Jörg, for the info.
I expected this might be the case. I saw the occurence copy in the assigned models (but not in all of them). But always better to ask to the experts.
I also considered another workaround, but that only works if an object already exists with the assignment, for example in a higher level model. Then the user without write acces could just copy that object into his model.
thanks
Bruno
Hi Bruno,
yes, the occurence copy is only in some assigned models (depends on model type and object type).
And yes, your workaround is also working. As I wrote, you need only write access to the object definition and the assigned model. If an object definition with the assignment exists, you can create an occurence copy in your model without having write access to the assigned model.

Jörg
