Global Sharing

You can choose whether global sharing is available for Answers, Appraisals, Assessments/Surveys, Balanced Scorecards, Credits, Global Resource Manager, Global Search, Global Training History, Goals, Instances, Notices, Notifications, and Questions. You do not have the ability to override the parent setting in Sub LearnCenters. Global sharing settings are disabled by default.

If you currently have global sharing enabled, and want to disable it, the following rules apply:

Any items that are currently flagged as global will no longer be global. For example, if you change the Questions flag from Global to LearnCenter only, all Questions will remain global in the current LearnCenter, but will not be seen in other LearnCenters. The Global sharing setting takes precedence in this case. If you change it back to Global, then they will be seen in all LearnCenters.
Global catalog filter in filter areas of the ControlPanel will not be visible. Insert into Global Bank check box in the Add/Modify pages for each corresponding item such as Questions, Answers, and Assessments/Surveys will not be visible.
Global Items are not available for selection from report filters.
