Systems and methods for controlling object/document access in a content management system. The content management system may have several layers of access controls, which may include a layer of access control at the object level, a layer of access control at the row level and a layer of access control at the field level. Access may be controlled at the object level by a user's security profile, at the object record level (or row level) by the user's role, and/or at the object field level by the user's role or a state in a document lifecycle. In other words, the object level access control may grant access (e.g., Create, Read, Edit and Delete) on objects, the object record level access control may grant access (e.g., Read, Edit and Delete) on object records, and field level access control may grant access (e.g., Read, Edit and Hidden) on object field level.

Access control in a content management system

Systems and methods for multi-object reporting in a content management system. A report type definition may define which objects are involved and how they are related. A report execution engine may generate a multi-object query language statement to translate the report type definition into query language. A query language execution engine may break the query language statement down into separate single pieces. A cost optimization engine may determine if it is cost efficient to join the objects. An indexed access execution engine may extract unique IDs of the objects and join the unique IDs to generate an index. A Lucene based search engine may be accessed according to the index, and the response is post processed to generate a multi-object report.
