[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Unable to view suppressed records

[Daniel Michelson]

Hi Angela,

There are actually two requirements for viewing suppressed records.  First
is the user permissions, but in addition, the first setting in user
preferences ("Show Suppressed?") must be checked.

Hope that helps.

All the best,

Dan
