Copy Down: Grant Access Rights to System Administrator of a Customer Portal
With this enhancement, system administrators can more effectively view and manage their portal's copy downs. The new Copy Down administration page enables administrators to do the following:
- View copy down records
- View copy down details and blackout dates
- Cancel copy down requests and provide a cancel reason
- Subscribe and unsubscribe to email notifications
Before canceling any scheduled copy down, it is recommended that system administrators consult with the person who initiated the copy down request.
How Does this Enhancement Benefit My Organization?
System Administrator’s ability to view copy down details for their portal improves transparency and reduces the dependency on Cornerstone to share copy down related information. This tool provides self-service ability to cancel a copy down and subscribe to email notifications.
Considerations
The Copy Down tool does not allow system administrators to schedule copy downs.
Implementation
This functionality is automatically enabled for all organizations. The new permission controls access to the Copy Down tool available in Core Functions.
