Security Layers on a Role

1. Permission to Edit Sales orders 2. Restrict to only edit OWN orders 3. Open fields for assignment or viewing 4. Assign custom form The first layer is just giving someone rights to go to a sales order. And in this case, you can see Permission to Edit a Sales Order. That's layer one. The second layer is restrict to whose sales orders they can go to. Can I only go to mine and my subordinate sales orders or can I go to anyone's? The third layer is going to be what we refer to as open fields. Open fields are typically fields that contain employee names, so a sales rep field or a customer support rep field. What type of restriction will we put around that? If I don't restrict those fields, then I'll have access or can select any sales rep or select any customer support rep from the field. If I do restrict that field, then I can only select based on the previous layer. I can only select names that appear, say my own or my subordinates. Final layer is we have the ability to create a custom form. We spoke to custom forms in an earlier module. But custom forms may be used to hide fields, relabel fields, make fields mandatory. Once we've done that, we can assign the custom form to the security role and, therefore, the user will be required to adhere to whatever the settings are within that particular form.
