Live Permission Checking in Mart

In the previous versions of erwin DM, when you updated a model in Mart that was created by another user, permissions were checked when you saved the model. Now, permissions are checked when you add, modify, or delete a model object.

The following rules apply:

  • If you update a model created by another user, you must have the Modify permission on the model, and its individual objects too.
  • If you update a model created by another user and have just the Modify permission on the model, you can add new objects.

If you are updating a model created by another user and you do not have the necessary permissions, you have the following options:

  • Designate the model as a new model and become the owner of the new model.
  • Modify the model and flag it for the Mart Portal's approval. If you select this option, you can continue with modifying the model. When you save the model, a request is sent to the Mart Portal to save the changes.
  • Cancel modifying the model.
