ACL on Fields from another Table?

Hello,

 

i have two tables with there own rights (ACL). Now i put some fields from table A on the form from table B. Now I want that the user can write to this field of Table A. But all fields are readonly.

The user has write/read access to that field on table A via ACL and access to table B. The fields on table B are writable for the user.

Any solution or hint to solve that issue?

 

Esample: Table A has a field "Foo" , Table B has the field "Bar". The form from table B displayes "Foo" and "Bar" via personalizing the form. The user can write in field "Bar" but not in "Foo" on table B. User can write in "Foo" on table A.

hello pradeepksharma,



i found the solution. I created a new ACL write rule for the reference field and it works.


Thanks for your time and hints.

Hi,



Please debug the security rules so that it will give you clear idea like which ACL is granting or restricting the access to the field.


I hope this helps



Thanks

hello pradeepksharma,



we have debug the ACL, but we found only that the reference field to the other table can not be written but read. The user have read access and not write access. That is right from design.



thanks schrren


Hi Schrren,



Create ACL for that specific field on the table which you want to have the write access.


Please find the screenshot for your reference(Replace "Assigned to" with your field name on the table which you want the write access)ACL.png


I hope this helps

hello pradeepksharma,



i have created a ACL rule on these table on which exists the field. On these table is work fine, but on the other form all fields readonly. Only fields which are originally created on that table are writeable. In our opinion, the writing should be possible. However, it is prevented, and we do not find out where that happens in SNOW.
