An administrator secures a repository in order to control user access to assets, asset properties, and asset types. For example, you can make all products visible to a user, but prevent the same user from editing product properties.
Merchandising uses three versioned Commerce repositories.
Merchandising Product Catalog. By default, this repository is secured when the ATG Business Commerce module is running, and is not secured when the ATG Consumer Commerce module is running.
Price Lists. By default, this repository is secured.
Claimable Repository. By default, this repository is not secured.
The following table lists the names and paths of the secured and unsecured versions of the versioned Commerce repositories that are provided with Merchandising. The paths of the Secured Repository and XML Repository definitions are also shown.

Notes:
Users who have Merchandising and Search have an additional repository called
RefinementRepository
. There is no need to secure this repository, whose assets are facets.The XML files are in the
Versioned
module because they must replace their counterparts in the unversioned module.
