Hi Sriram,
You can achieve this by the followin steps:
1) Pool the specific MFG users to a User group.
2) Go to "Security" in Org Utilities and enable Folder domain display to YES.
3) Create a Domain and rule the policy administration for the following two conditions:
> The EPM Document object should carry "Deny" permission for all the listed actions under "In Work" State.
> The EPM Document object should be given "Read" Permissiono alone for the "Released" State.
4) Once when you had created the above policy now go to the folders where you need to apply this policy rule - Right click - Edit - Uncheck the Inherit Domain option - Click on Find and select the domain & policy rule that you had created in the above step and click "OK"
and DONE..
Hope this helps!
regards,
Amarkarthi
