Vault security

[varindersra]

I was trying to create the folder level security. I assigned manufacturing with deny all permission. But when I login as manufacturing I am still able to view the folder, although I can't check out the file. Same is hapening with life cycle states. I don't know whats wrong.

Are you logging in as an administrator? Administrators can see all files,
even if the permissions have a deny for read. This behavior was done to
prevent files from becoming locked in an invisible mode. If it were
possible to make a file invisible to everyone, it would be locked that way,
because nobody would be able to set it back to visible.

No, I am loging in as manufacturing with permission set to deny all.

Hello,
Could you let we know the roles of the user manufacturing? you can check: Client Tools->Administration->Security->User->Roles. If the manufacturing's role is administrator, then as Doug mentioned 'it can see all files, even if the permissions have a deny for read'.

Thanks that resolved the problem. Actually the manufacturing was in the group, which has administrator role.
