Object Approval


When this feature is enabled, only objects which have been explicitly approved in the Object Browser will appear in the repository catalog, be returned from the repository search pages, or be available for interoperation. A practical use of this feature would be to allow one person to create objects and then let another person double check and approve them. This feature could also be used by repositories which accept input from sources of undetermined reliability.

Be aware that toggling this feature can cause the catalog to look drastically different. Double check the lists of objects under the Manage Objects tab to determine which objects will or will not be affected by toggling.

See the help documentation on Manage Objects / Object Status for instructions on how to approve/unapprove objects.
