Remove Admin role to view records/fields on specific table

DChandlerKy · ‎11-24-2014

We have built an application per a requirement. The form and notifications, while simple, work like a charm. There is no workflow. The last piece is for us to adjust the ACL's so that only users with a specific role (created when the app/table was created) can view the records. (Yes - everyone is aware that if there is an issue, we will have to add Admin back into the ACL to troubleshoot.)

This new table/app was extended off of Task. I created a Read ACL for each of the fields on the table/form with the specific role and unchecked the "Admin Override" box. However, I can still see the fields. A few of the fields are borrowed from the task table, and a few others were created on the new table.

Any ideas/suggestions on how to 'lock' Admins out?

Thanks,

Diana

Tho I personally don't support something like this, you can add this script to the ACL read and it should hide the field from the admin:

var answer = true;

if (gs.hasRole('admin'))

answer = false;

Thank you all! I wish I could mark you all three as correct.

I don't necessarily agree with the request to make these records private, even from admins. However, its a very special/specific circumstance that I honestly am happy to oblige (Esp since it gets another area doing more in the tool.).

Thanks again!!
