Hi,
One of the repositories I look after is connected to a 3^rd party system which uses a ‘connector account’ to deposit items into EPrints.

I would like to enable editors to see these items whilst they are in that user’s inbox (work area), without having to log in as the connector account.

Has anyone done anything similar – or is there a way of doing this that I have overlooked?

My current thinking is this:

• The screen that shows the user’s items is: EPrints::Plugin::Screen::Items.
• This ends up calling $user->owned_eprints_list to find items to display.
• In that method, there is an un-documented config option: get_users_owned_eprints (https://github.com/eprints/eprints3.4/blob/b5d35443a00fc16ddb465fdbe2dc8188c2145004/perl_lib/EPrints/DataObj/User.pm#L954)
• Defining a function in the configuration that returns an appropriate EPrints::List looks like it could/should work.

Is anyone using this config option?

Cheers,

John
