SDL TMS 2011 SP6 CU1 | View Job permission granted in child Group is not effective in the user's main TMS Inbox

30 Sep 2015

Symptoms:
You are a user created in Organization A, which is parent-organization to Organization B. You have the "View Job" permission granted for Organization B. When navigating to Home > Inbox , without selecting a specific organization in the navigation tree, you can see jobs from Organization B, but no link is available to get to the Job Summary page.

Note that when you select the child-organization from the navigation tree, going to Home > Inbox > Organization B, the job links are displayed fine and work as expected.

Explanation:
The mechanism that checks the permissions for the main Inbox page was faulty and only checked permissions for the Organization the user was created in.

Resolution:
The solution now fixes this issue and checks permissions for each Organization present in the Inbox.

SDL-hosted customers should contact SDL Support to arrange for a hotfix to be deployed.
