Managing Documents and Workspaces
In this application, the documents or workspaces are displayed that are found as the result of a search activity. The search is based on the filter parameters. Other features include unlocking checked-out document, reviewing the check-out information, document history, and users' access on documents and workspaces.

Actions that can be performed on all the documents:
Check Effective Access (1) - Click this icon and enter the user ID to display the access rights of the user for the selected document.
