Edit Document

Selecting this option opens the current document for edit. You can also enter Edit mode by simply double-clicking anywhere in the document.

Where Used

Selecting this option opens a message displaying the activity names that use this connection. Only activity names to which you have read or write access will be listed.

Save and Close

Selecting this option saves the changes that you have made and returns you to the HCL Enterprise Integrator (HEI) or Domino® Enterprise Connection Services (DECS) Administrator.

Author Privileges

This option enables the Author or Administrator to view or edit the Editor-level access for the active document. Users with Author-level access may view and edit the document as follows:

  • Add name[s] to document editor list.

    Choose this option to add a name(s) from the Domino® Directory to the list of editors for this document.

  • Remove a name from the list of editors for this document.

    Choose this option to delete a name from the list of editors for this document.

  • View document editor list.

    Choose this option to view the list of editors for this document.

Reader Privilege

This option enables the Author or Administrator to view or edit the Reader-level access for the active document. Using this option, you can:

  • Add name[s] to document reader list.

    Choose this option to add a name(s) from the Domino® Directory to the list of readers for this document.

  • Remove a name from document reader list.

    Choose this option to delete a name from the list of readers for this document.

  • View document reader list.

    Choose this option to view the list of readers for this document.

Users with Reader-level access may view the document but may not edit its content.

All users added to the Readers field must also be resident in the HEI Administrators database ACL as a minimal access level of Reader. It is also good practice to add in the LocalDomainServers entry to the readers field, to avoid any issues that could happen if this database is replicated.

If the author does not add any names to the Readers field, all users are able to read the document. The author needn't add his own name to the Readers list, the author is automatically granted read and write access.

Note: If the Reader field is empty, then all users who open the document can read it. However, if the Reader field is not empty, then only the users whose names are listed will have read access to the document. In this scenario, users who are not the Author of the document must add their name (or have their name added by either the author or another user who has read access) to the Reader list in order to have read access to the document. To have both read and write access, the user's name must appear in both the Author and the Reader fields.

Test Connectivity

Selecting this option runs the DCTEST program. It also lists the connection properties and settings.

Note: DCTEST is a connectivity test that establishes whether the client data source access libraries are available and functional on the Domino® server. DCTEST ensures that the communications and client software required to access a specific data source is available and properly configured. It does not test for specific product functionality. For related information, see Chapter 1 of this guide.

Where Used

Selecting this option opens a message displaying the activity names that use this connection. Only activity names to which you have read or write access will be listed.
