Problem Description:

After upgrading to version 16.9 users who can edit document attributes in Director cannot do so in ALIM Web.

Cause:

The new permission "Modify Approved documents" is needed for users to edit document attributes in ALIM Web.

Solution:

  1. Login to Director as the ADMIN user
  2. search for the user who is facing the issue
  3. find out the permission roles that this user has
  4. grant the "System Information -> Modify Approved Documents" permission to at least one of the roles found above

Workaround:
