Make all records read only in GRC

[Sunil25]

Hello Experts,

We are migrating to new Servicenow instance for GRC module and in the existing instance, we wanted to make all tables of GRC to read only as part of Cutover. Meaning all the records in all tables of GRC to read only. Could you please let me know what is the best way to achieve this as GRC module contains various tables. The best solution which I think is to create read ACL on each table of GRC and deactivate all write ACL's. Is there any other best process?

Thanks,

Sunil Safare

Hi @Sunil25 

yes ACL is best  but make sure the communication should go out to all users and you start getting lots of incidents.

Is there any way where we can make complete plugin related tables as read only? because GRC is huge plugin with related data and implementing ACLs on each table is not worthy solution.

Hi @Sunil25 

You can try disable the modules or application and keep it only with Admin.

@Sunil25 ,

You can check for the table hierarchy and then setup the ACLs accordingly as suggested by @Dr Atul G- LNG
