Effect of an Ownership Change on Permission Assignments
When you transfer ownership to another user, the Full permission that CentraSite implicitly grants to the owner of an asset is transferred to the new owner and taken away from the previous owner (the previous owner will retain any explicit permissions on the asset that he or she might have). Otherwise, CentraSite makes no changes to the instance-level or role-based permissions currently associated with the asset. This means that:
*All instance-based permissions that are assigned to the asset will remain in effect after the transfer. For example, if group ABC currently has Modify permission on an asset, group ABC will continue to have Modify permission on the asset after the ownership change.
*All role-based permissions remain as is. If a user currently has access to the asset through an organization-level role-based permission, he or she will lose access to the asset if it is transferred to another organization. CentraSite Control makes no attempt to preserve a user's access to the asset by adjusting the user's role-based permissions. If you change the organizational ownership of an asset, you should review the role-based permission settings in the receiving organization afterwards to ensure that the asset is available to all the users who need it.
