assign group in submit.cfg?

Group A - user a0
Group A - user a1
Group A - user a2

Group B - user b0
Group B- user b1

if user a0 submit the file, can we set the group premission ONLY can read / modify by Group A user

how can we check the file which belong to which's group ?

I only can see workarea_pattern and file_pattern

Are you saying that in a given directory you have files which should only be accessible to one group or another - and the basis of that is completely arbitrary since it doesn't follow any kind of naming or location convention?

If so - then I don't think you want to use submit.cfg for it - you'll have to control the setting of the permissions using scripting within the submit workflow context.

However - I'd advocate re-thinking this design entirely since I think it will lead you towards a maintance nightmare. If groupA should have exclusive access to certain files - those files should be in explicitly distinct directories or have explcitily distinct file naming conventions (and vice-versa for groupB-exclusive files) - anything else is ad-hoc and quite likely to cause problems down the road.

-- YES, it will only depends on the Group of that user.

-- Can I use iwextattr.exe to set the group ?

Do you think there have other way to secure the file which only can access by group of user ?
create another workarea or ?

iwextattr won't be any help for you.
iwattrib might provide you some assistance in coding a solution
chown and [iw]chgrp -- on Unix -- are basically the way to do this, translate as needed into suitable Windows commands.

I still think this sounds like a "bad design" - but since I'm not working on it, it's not my problem....
