Hi Manikanta,

I won't recommend giving explicit READ access to this table (sys_journal_field) via ACL since it holds journal entries for all journal fields across the instance

out of the box there are couple of READ ACLs on that table

Mark ✅ Correct if this solves your issue and also mark 👍 Helpful if you find my response worthy based on the impact.

May i know the use case for the requirement ?


Journal Entries are always seen to Users/Agent bases on their ROLE(itil=min,unless you change the configuration )
