Issue in User Management and Permissions

Question

Hi,
     There is an issue found while working on user management and security. When an asset is uploaded to the DAM, even with create and modify permission it is not able to      edit.
     While analyzing, it was due to the following reasons.
When given “MODIFY” permission to the root folder, it is not applying to all the asset  in that folder and sub-folders.
We have to provide “MODIFY” permission for each asset, in this case it won’t apply for newly added asset.
When given “DELETE” permission to the root folder, “MODIFY” permission is applying automatically to all the asset  in that folder and sub-folders.
But “myRole” only should modify the asset but not delete.
Is it CQ functionality or an issue.?
Note: Using CQ5.5 version

Answer 1

In CQ5.4 "MODIFY" permission at folder level is enough for modifying the assets under that folder. But in CQ5.5 "MODIFY" permission is necessary for every asset for editing.
