Hi, we have the following customer requirement: There is a department hiarchie Every department is linked to an AD-Group that corresponds to a directory in the backend The department hierarchy therefore corresponds to a directory hierarchy in the backend. We have Top-Down-Inheritance: Every employee in Department Child-CX has the right to see every directory in Parentdepartment PX And now comes the boss! He should have access to all directories. This requirement seems to make sense to me, but it cannot be mapped with a purely top-down approach. Bottom-up applies to the boss. But since you can't have it both ways, the question is, How can you meet this customer requirement? Alexander

Top down - bottom up hybrid inheritance

Hi,

we have the following customer requirement:

There is a department hiarchie
Every department is linked to an AD-Group that corresponds to a directory in the backend
The department hierarchy therefore corresponds to a directory hierarchy in the backend.
We have Top-Down-Inheritance: Every employee in Department Child-CX has the right to see every directory in Parentdepartment PX

And now comes the boss! He should have access to all directories.

This requirement seems to make sense to me, but it cannot be mapped with a purely top-down approach. Bottom-up applies to the boss. But since you can't have it both ways, the question is,

How can you meet this customer requirement?

Alexander
