Recursive site ownership transfer for collaboration context

Recursive site ownership transfer is an option available during briefcase export of a collaboration context. It enables a user to achieve ownership transfer recursively below selected objects instead of marking them explicitly.

Recursive site ownership transfer is based on closure rules which can be easily modified/configured as per requirements. The name of the closure rule used for recursive ownership transfer is defined in the MEAutomaticOwnershipTransferClosureRules preference.

To export a collaboration context briefcase with recursive ownership transfer, do the following:

Procedure

1. Mark the objects for which recursively ownership is to be transferred by right-clicking objects and then choosing Briefcase→Mark for Ownership Transfer.

8. Select the Recursive ownership transfer for the selected objects check box.

9. When all parameters are set, click OK.
