Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I seem to recall that this is the way DSpace was designed to work - basically that ALLOW access for a new Eperson is *not* retroactive to Items that were previously in the repository. I believe you can correct this situation by using the "Advanced/Item Wildcard Policy Admin Tool" under "Authorization" on the Admin menu. Here you can assign authorization/access using a combination of 4 parameters:
1. Collection 2. Content type [cid:[email protected]] 3. Group 4. Action [cid:[email protected]] Hope this helps!

Is there anyway to retroactively have an E-Person have access to items in a workflow submitted AFTER he was added? I batch imported about 500 items into a collection but have a new staff member I would like to have edit and approve them.
