How is access to archive tables controlled?

[Meloper]

Is the authorisation concept of the documents to be archived automatically adopted?
Do I have to create new ACLs?
Who can see archived records if I only activate and start an archive rule without doing anything to the authorisations?

Hi @Meloper , archive tables (e.g. ar_problem) uses the ACLs of the source table (e.g. problem), so there is no need to create additional ACLs if sys property glide.security.enable_archive_table_acl is false. Otherwise you can create dedicated ACLs for archive tables. If there is no existing then it will use the ACLs of source table too.
