The members of the assignment group Service Desk have the following restrictions configured:

  • Unable to Create New from All > Changes > Create new (make the fields of the form read only so that service desk member cannot enter values and cannot save/submit the form)
  • Read only access to all Change Requests (existing ones, All > Changes > All)
  • Unable to raise a Change from an Incident record 
  • Unable to raise a Change from Service Operations Workspace 
  • Unable to raise a Change from an Incident record in Service Operations Workspace

Any guidance or assistance is greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance!

Hi @curr_user 

 

So now the 

  • Read only access to all Change Requests (existing ones, All > Changes > All)

If you dont want to play with role, then 2 options

1- BR

2 ACL

 

ACL is one of the best options where you can create an ACL on the change table and mention the group name.
