Possible to control "Required Properties" based on work space in D2

edited March 31, 2017 in Documentum #1

We have an application that consists of multiple work spaces (were each one identifies a different department, lets say).  All work spaces make use of the same object type and property page for documents.  We now have a use case where on some of the work spaces (departments) a couple of the attributes are required, but they are not required in the other work spaces (departments).


Is there a way to control whether the attributes are required based on the current user's work space context?

In D2-Config, on the attribute definition you can specify a Required Condition, but that is exclusively based on using the available attributes.  I was thinking of using the Advanced View Editor and wondering if there is way to determine the current work space context using that.  What functions/methods are available for use in the editor (is there a list documented somewhere)?

    Hi Rene,

    I don't know of a setting for this, but a workaround would be to have different property pages controlled by contexts. The contexts could depend on department memberships.

    As per as my knowledge this cannot be achieved using advanced view editor. You need to configure different property page in this case.

    Thanks -- I suspected as much, but was hoping for another option.
