A student Susan has submitted her thesis, consisting of several bitstreams, to the repository. During the submission process, she forgot to set an embargo for her thesis. She notices her mistake several days later, and contacts the repository administrator, John, to rectify this.

John uses the "Authorizations" feature in the "Edit item" page to change the access to all of the bitstreams. To do so, he clicks the "Batch change policies" link on the "Original" bundle. He is redirected to the screen where he can chose from a dropdown list to either apply open access policies, embargoed access policies or closed access policies on all of the bundles bitstreamsRepository manager decides that access permissions of an item should be changed because of an arbitrary event (implying that it's impossible to use embargo start/end dates and impossible to create a curation task to select items automatically based on some criteria). She or he opens the UI, specifies the item and adds or revokes some permission for some user group. Modifications are applied to all of the bitstreams of the specified item.
