Protection on a document in Simployer Classic. When protection is enabled on a document, only the person that has set the protection can edit it.
If the person who applied the protection still has an active profile, they must remove the protection themselves.
While users with document administrator roles should have permission to view, also, protected documents - they should not be able to access these types of documents by default. Meaning that document administrators, from now on, first must actively remove document protection in order to access a document.
This update is not equal to any loss in permissions - but will make sure that protected documents can't be accessed without someone taking a conscious action. This logic/feature is a "compliance by design" type of setup meaning that it's still the document administrators responsibility to make sure that document protection only is removed if/when there are support for this in, at any given time, applicable legislations, for example ones related to compliance.
