@abjaffrey 

those users should also have table.None WRITE access

If you don't create your own table.None WRITE ACL then it will evaluate it's parent level WRITE ACL which might be blocking

Did you check that?

Check below ACL evaluation order

Hi Ankur,

 

Thanks for your help, it is working on the group, but other group which already had access is getting impacted

@abjaffrey 

those 2 fields will now be editable only by your group as per your requirement

what do you mean by other group access is impacted?

which access is impacted?

Since you create field level WRITE ACL and it allows edit only for your group then no other group members can edit those.
