Authors cannot edit a DCR

Hello,

In TeamSite 5.5.2, for a particular content-type, the authors cannot edit the existing DCRs, they got the message :
"you don't have sufficient permissions to edit this dcr type. You must be either a master, an adminitrator or an editor."
However the same authors can edit the dcrs of all other content-types in the same workarea.

The authors are members of the group for sharing for the current workarea.
Nothing special in the submit.cfg
I did check templating.cfg for <allowed>, but there is nothing
I did check the file properties on the dcrs and on the data directory and they are "rwx" for the owner and for the group.

Where else can the security be set to prevent authors for editing dcrs ????

Did you check the protections on the datacapture.cfg file?

Hi

Initially it sounds like a templating.cfg thing -- but you said you have checked that. Are you 100% sure you are checking the right templating.cfg?

A wild stab in the dark: is there any formAPI code for this template which is performing that validation?

Cheers

Yep it was set in the datacapture.cfg, thanks !

var CurrentRole=IWDatacapture.getRole();
if(CurrentRole != 'master' && CurrentRole != 'admin' && CurrentRole != 'editor') {
alert("you don't have sufficient permissions to edit this dcr type.\nYou must be either a master, an administrator or an editor.");
window.close();
}
