Restrict Editing Rights at the Record Level?

[Kevin Ng]

Background:

I have created a custom table to house our company's master application list and I have a requirement to only allow specific users (Director, Manager) of the ownership group the rights to edit their owned records. 

Question:

Do we have the ability to restrict access at the record level? If so, I need some guidance. I'm familiar with ACL's but we've typically only implemented these at the table level.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Kevin,

Yes its ACL that you need. You need it on table level or field level is something on you to decide.

1. table.none would mean that you are applying the ACL at the table level.

2. table.* would mean you are applying this for all rows/fields on that table which don't have their own specific table.field ACL. 

3. table.row/field, means you are applying this for that specific field.

Also, refer thread for a check

Hi Jaspal,

Thank you for your response. I'm more interested in the ability to restrict editing access at the record level though. Specifically records in the table that are owned by a particular group. I'm guessing this will likely need to be achieved through a business rule or potentially client script. 

Thank you for the link though,

Kevin
