  • Record relationship change control in a content management system
    Patent number: 11593499
    Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling record relationship changes in a content management system. The content management system may have several layers of access controls, which may include a layer of access control at the object level, a layer of access control at the row level and a layer of access control at the field level. Access may be controlled at the object level by a user's security profile, at the object record level (or row level) by the user's role, and/or at the object field level by the user's role or a state in a document lifecycle. A secure inbound relationship attribute may be used to control record relationship changes. Actions for creating, deleting and reassigning are permitted only when the inbound relationship is editable according to the secure inbound relationship attribute.
