External services

The external services that can be configured on the project-tab:

• The ART-DECOR Automatic Notifier System (ADANS)

Reference a building block repository

In order to use concepts, value sets, and templates from a BBR (building block repository), it is necessary to first add a reference to a repository. Follow these steps to add a reference to a BBR from a project:

• Log in as decor-admin
• Go to tab Project/General
• Click on Add building block repository. This will show a list of BBR's (depending on the server settings, these can include BBR's that reside on this server and/or BBR's that reside on external servers. See also the ART maintenance manual).
• Select a BBR
• Click add to add a BBR-reference in the current project

• After adding the BBR-reference: when adding dataset concepts, value sets or templates, content from the BBR is also presented in the current project

Adding authors to a project

Before a user can edit a project, the following steps must be performed:

• the user must have a personal ART-DECOR user account, please Contact us to obtain one
• the user must have the proper group permissions (See also the ART maintenance manual)
• Now the user can be added to the project by a decor-admin from the project:
  • Log in as decor-admin
  • Go to tab Project/Authors
  • Add a user to the current project by clicking Add author
  • Select the user
  • Click Add
  • Click Save to update the project information

Project specific author settings

Any ART-DECOR user may be active in multiple projects. He may be acting from different organizations depending on the project, and he may be more or (temporarily) less involved. For these reasons ART-DECOR supports switching on/off notification settings for ADANS on a project specific level. Any user with 'decor-admin' rights in the project can adjust the settings for any project author. In addition to that, the decor-admin project user may switch the ADANS notifier on/off for the entire project. All other project (issue) authors can adjust their own settings.

The notifiers work as follows:

• project notifier is on when it is '---' or 'on'. project notifier is off when it is 'off' (project opt-out)
• user notifier is on when it is 'on'. project notifier is off when it is '---' or 'off' (user opt-in)
