Access rights to clear suspect links

Hello everybody,

I have a little problem. Does anyone know if it's possible to limit the access of an object to claer a suspect link?

The background is that we have specific responsibilities (e.g. test department) for each requirement. But there are other users who can edit the object. Now I would like to know whether it is possible to keep the RM rights for the objects, but limit the access to claer a suspicion of an object.

Anyone got an idea?
Thanks in advance.

Might be best approach to limit right to links modules.

I had the same problem some weeks ago. I found out the following:

Since suspect links use the "Suspicion Cleared Forwards/Backwards" attributes in the link module you can limit the right to clear a suspicion by limiting the access to the attribute. Example:

You have group A and Group B. If you set the Access rights as followed

Link Module: A -> RMCD B -> R
Suspicion Attribute: A->R B -> RMCD

Then group B will be able to clear suspicions, but not create or delete links. A can create links but not clear the suspicion on them.

Is this what you want?

Regards, Mathias
