Assigning Permission: 
Permissions for facts are assigned when creating and/or editing content. After you have clicked on the "next>>" button in the Input mask, a group overview is opened, where you can specify the permissions. Here a pre-selection is offered to you, which you can accept directly, but you are not required to.
 
  
The preselection offered for the permissions is determined by your P-Admin.
  
General permissions
  | read | Read-permitted groups can just read the corresponding fact, but they cannot edit or hide/delete it. |  
  | modify | The modify-permitted groups can create, edit and hide/delete the fact. |  
 
 
Modify permitted groups are also automatically read permitted. I.e. creators don't have to add read-permission in this case. For all other additional permissions the read-permissions have to be checked, too.
 
Additional permissions in Forum: 
A Forum has three levels: Forum  Topics  Postings. You have the possibility to limit the modification permissions for the second and/or third level.
  | create topic  |  These groups can write only topics (2nd layer) and postings (3rd layer). |  
  | post |  These groups can write only postings to the topics (3rd layer)
 |  
 
 
Additional permissions for folders: 
  | work |  These groups can create facts and shortcuts in the folder, but they cannot modify the folder itself. |   
 
 
Why permissions? 
A well-thought permission system enables Platform Administrators and users to accurately control who is allowed to read or modify which information. For any details please read through: Functional hierarchy
