Document Management

anilkumark over 7 years ago

I have crated a Knowledge Center and couple of folders in that KC. From Upload component users will upload the docs (Spreadsheet). I am saving the uploaded docs to corresponding folders. Here the issue is some of the docs are able to delete directly. We are not able to delete some of the docs which are not in approve. Can anyone tell me how will be the some docs are in approve and some are not in approve? Thanks..!

Have you checked the security settings on all of the folders? Is there a difference between folders where you can and can not delete documents?

Yes, from designer url. Now I am going to use Document Delete smart service in the process model after inserting the doc to folder. But my doubt is while going to delete with the help of document id, will it be deleted if the doc is not approved?

If no error then it means the document can be deleted. That'd be the answer to your last question.

To disable the approval requirement take a look at the KC security forum.appian.com/.../Knowledge_Center_Security.html and its setting "All changes to the files contained in the KC require approval by the KC administrator"

If that doesn't work check forum.appian.com/.../kb-1192.html
