Public Folders

[Former Member]

Hi

I have 2 usergroups (normal reports and Advanced Reports) and have 2 folders (1 each for each user group) under "Public Folders"

When users log in Infoview they view their respective folder under "Public Folders" .

is there any settings by which this "Public folders" can be suppressed or at least this can be renamed to say my app name ?

Thanks

Thanks Tim

"Public Folders" is not displayed under "Folder" tab.

for rest of folders created under "Public Folders" the settings are working fine.

i.e.

When Advanced User logs in the system he can view Folders as

Public Folders

|----

---

Advanced Reports

when Normal User logs in system his view is

Public Folders

|----

---

Reports

for admin this is viewd as

Public Folders

|----

---

Advanced Reports

|----

---

Reports

What i need is when user logs in either he views folders as

Advanced Reports

or

MYAPP

|----

---

Advanced Reports

Thanks

Maybe I got it backward,

You can try this

set view on public folders/parent

set everyone to no access on the advance and reports

set the advance group to view-full access on advance and the normal users with view-full control for reports?

I don't think you can change the parent folder name per user (MYAPP). At least this isn't something I remember seeing before.

Sure.

What you will want to do is apply no-access to everyone at the parent level of the 2 folders in question (if they are at the root level this is the CMC/settings area. Then allow access per group at the folder level. When the user logs on they should only see the folder(s) they are allowed access too.

Let us know if you have any questions.
