Hello @sowp,

What this task means is: you want to allow a user who is set as the manager of a group (on the  sys_user_group record) to be able to edit that group’s members (sys_user_grmember), while preventing others from doing so.

You can approach it like this:

1. Set the group manager

   • On the group record (sys_user_group), populate the Manager field with the user who should control membership.

2. Use ACLs for control

   • Create/modify ACLs on the sys_user_grmember table.

   • Add a condition or script that checks whether the current user is the manager of the related group.

So in practice:

• If Abraham Lincoln is the Manager of a group, then only he can add/remove members from that group’s membership list via the edit buttons.

  

This way, you don’t need to give broad roles like user_admin to everyone, but only the designated manager.

Thanks & Regards,

@sowp - You can hide the Edit / New button using the List Control on the Group Members related list.
