Use cases
DASSIGNEE maps users to document roles (DROLE) within specific scoping dimensions. It uses three comboKeys: category (DTYPECAT, comboKey 1), document type (DTYPE, comboKey 2), and document role (DROLE, comboKey 3). This triple-scoping enables precise assignment rules like 'User X is an Approver for Procedure documents in the Quality Management category'. The name field is a singleuser lookup identifying the assigned person. The active checkbox allows assignments to be deactivated without deletion. When the DMS workflow engine determines who should review or approve a document version, it queries DASSIGNEE records matching the document's category and type to find users in the appropriate roles. The autoOpen:true setting streamlines creating assignments from parent context.
