Hello everyone,
Someone created a custom ACL allowing list edit to all tables for users with admin role.
Now, I need to allow users with change_admin role to update state field on SCTASK from list view. Either the SCTASK list or the related list under RITM.
Created the ACL, but the first one (for admins) prevents the new one from being evaluated.
How should I proceed?
Thanks,

Hi,
Did you also create a table level list_edit as well? Not just table.field?
That is supposed to override the * ACL as that is only evaluated if no table has their own level ACL.

Hi Allen,
Don't think we have a table level ACL, let me see.
On top of that, should we restrict that table level ACL to change_admin?
EDIT: no dice, created a table level ACL for SCTASK restricting to change_admins, but even though he cannot edit.
The State field on a SCTASK is a field that comes from task table, right?

Hi,
What did the debug say now, I believe it would have changed?
For the sc_task and state field, yes, it comes from the task table, but, if you have an ACL for it on the sc_task table, that one would override anything with the parent table.
