In ProjectWise Explorer SS3, you can export your Folder security setup quickly and easily by selecting the “Access Control” tab in the document view pane. You can save the security permissions for a folder or document by highlighting the source folder and then the Access Control tab, then click on the green Excel Export button on the top right side of the menu bar. This will bring up a directory and dialog to save the security setup export file.
The ProjectWise “Help” has some excellent detail in the section called “setting Security permissions in ProjectWise Explorer” for setting up the Export and Import of the settings.
You may even edit or change the settings for individual Users directly in the exported Excel file, and then import via the import button at the top right menu bar. The Excel image below shows the permissions in the exported Excel file ready to import. For example, an Admin can selectively add “Delete” folder writes for one specific User in the Excel sheet to be imported, but keep all other security permissions as exported out.
