How to restrict view permissions in RQM?

We're trying to figure out how to open RQM to external stakeholders,
but with restricted read access.
Particularly, it should be possible that customers can only see "their" defects, but not test plans, results. Can this be done? can I -at least- restrict contributor access to projects that they are members of?

Is this possible in RQM 1.x and 2.x ?

thanks,
Florian

I believe you would somehow have to configure this at the process level itself thru the RTC client to provide this type of restricted access

Thanks for your answer..but...not sure I understand.

Do you want to say that I can use a RTC client to modify process permissions for a *RQM* project area?
Are these areas compatible? - these are on different servers/repositories and thus probably different Jazz versions...

Hi

The RTC client can be used as an admin client for RQM and is really not to be mixed with usual usage of RTC.
You need the RTC client for certain administration tasks like, restricting the user permissions.

You find more information on this topic in the RQM help: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/rqmhelp/v1r0m0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.rational.test.qm.doc/topics/t_admin_rtc.html

However you set operational permissions meaning what a user can och can't do in the system. I belive it's harder to actually restrict a user from seeing a Testplan for example.
