Comment DEV Team[edit]

  • Natasa: maybe we can rework this use case as at one time there can be only one task in state "processing" for an item. Again, workflow dependent, but probably view the item "position" in the workflow would be better i.e. not limit to state "processing". --Natasa 12:27, 22 January 2008 (CET)

However we name the use case...the functionality should provide to a user to see, "where" in the workflow loop the item is currently...so it is indeed the position in the workflow. Agree to rework for future release. --Ulla 17:25, 1 February 2008 (CET)

UC_PM_BD_14 Moderator Workspace (QA Workspace)[edit]

Scenario[edit]

As we currently don't have a workflow engine, we decided to have a so called "moderator workspace" for now.

In the moderator workspace the moderator sees all items, which have been submitted in the collection(s) where s/he is moderator. Only the moderator can release items after s/he has checked them.

Specification[edit]

Status: implemented

Schedule: R3.5

Pre-conditions[edit]

  • Extended publication and modification workflow (e.g. depositor can only submit an item when s/he creates it)
  • the following is only true for users, which have only moderator privileges (if they also have depositor rights, they have two workspaces a depositor one and a moderator one)

Moderator Workspace[edit]

  • moderator can see all items, which s/he has privilege as moderator
  • the default sorting is descending by date of creation/last change of the item, so that the newest entry is listed first

Send back for re-work[edit]

See: Func. Spec. QA.

Prototype[edit]

Future Development[edit]

  • the user name of the depositor should be visible within the QA workspace

Discussion[edit]

Talk:PubMan_Func_Spec_Browsing_and_displays#UC_PM_BD_14_Moderator_Workspace

Additional information[edit]

File visibility[edit]

The possibility of downloading a file depends on

  • the access level set to a file
  • the organisational unit a user is assigned to
  • the status of the item. Files attached to items in status <withdrawn>, cannot be downloaded.

Files with the visibility

  • “Private” can be downloaded by the owner,
  • “Organizational unit” can be downloaded by any user who is member of any of the organizational units the file is visible by or their subunits,
  • “Public” can be downloaded by all users of the system including the “anonymous user”.

See PubMan File Properties for more information.
