Application Menu - Module Separator (Roles)

[ChadLee4]

I am working on an Application Menu Module design. Here is an example:

Application menu

• Module Separator 1
  • Module 1
  • Module 2
• Module Separator 2
  • Module 3
  • Module 4

If I add a role requirement for Module Seperator 2, would it block viewing of Module 3 & 4 within the application menu, or would I still be able to see module 3 and 4?

Yes it will block 3 and 4. module seprator 2 will act as a parent to module 3 and 4. (you can test them in you lower instance like uat or dev instance.)

i hope this helps...

I thought that as well, but "Group By - Test Location" is grouping together (shown below)

This user has all roles except for "wizard_admin", so I'd expect "Test Location S2" AND "Group By - Test Location" to both not be visible

Am I doing something wrong here?

[Sohail Khilji]

its simply about parent and child hireracy, if you hide parent all its associated child will also be hidden. Use this logic to apply the roles.

and if you want to hide only child modules then simply role only to specific child module. that will do the job.

i hope this helps...

Right, but in the above screenshots, wouldn't you expect "Group By - Test Location" to be hidden since its parent (Test Location S2) is hidden to due lack of necessary roles?
