Help Permission Problem!

HI, Hope someone can help. We want users to be able to see what is populated in the status field but not change it. When we set the permission to see it but not edit. The word shows as hidden instead of what the status actually is. So for example if we set this status field to employed by another user. I want this user to see its set as employed but I don't want them to be able to edit.

Thanks
Emma

  • You need to activate Automatic Permissions on your Business Unit class. Restrict permissions of objects that refer to this class, then use the properties specifying the employees, and specify which permissions each type of employees should have. You probably want to remove All internal users from the permissions. If your properties select employees directly from M-Files users, then you can use the properties directly. If you are selecting from a list of Employees which in turn has a property M-Files User, then use indirect reference like I have on the Project Manager.M-Files user in the screenshot. The screenshot is from a setup for projects but is can be used the same way for your business units.
    With that in place any document and any client referring directly to your business unit should have restricted access.
    In the document classes you should be able to have the Business Unit property filled with an automatic value based on the client, it refers to.
