#2700 - Filter Users avoiding whom is on Non Inheritable Groups
Hi, i'm using the ENHANCED package.
I already activated the "Filter User List" option.
How is it possible (ie in advanced search Assigned User field) to avoid to see Users that are in a same Group but with the "Not Inheritable" flag on?
I mean: i want that lower level Users aren't able to see shared calendar of nor to assign activities to higher level Users.
Thanks in advance,
-

Hello,
The "Not Inheritable" flag is for determining whether a group should get assigned to a record when a record gets created.
To limit users' views of other users not in their groups use the Role grid and set the List and View columns to Group so that they only see themselves and others in their group.
You may also want to set the Shared Calendar - Hide Restricted setting on the SecuritySuite Settings page so that only items that a user has access to will show on the Shared Calendar. Filter User List is another setting that sounds like should be set in your case.
Hope this helps!

Thank you very much. This is the scenario:
Users of Group #1 can see its records, Group #2 records and Group #3 records Users of Group #2 can see its records and Group #3 records Users of Group #3 can see just its records
I assigned all records to Group 3. Then i assigned the group users of Group #1 and of Group #2 also to group #3, but i set their membership as Not Inheritable. This way when a group 2 user creates a record it does not also add group 3. I assigned the group users of Group #1 also to Group #2 but i set their membership as Not Inheritable. This way when a group 1 users creates a record it does not also add group 2.
Is it possible, and if yes, how, for a User in Group #2 to see only Users of Group #2 and Group #3 and for a User in Group #3 to see only Users of Group #3 ?

It sounds like you have a bit of a custom need here. I don't have a solution for your need, but the spots to check are in /include/utils.php in the get_user_array(), getUserArrayFromFullName(), and get_bean_select_array() functions. I believe it is the first function there that controls what users show in the user select and the second function is for doing the autocomplete search. It's been awhile though so it'll require some debugging to figure out exactly where to do your logic in.

Do you think is there an upgrade safe way of overriding those functions get_user_array() and getUserArrayFromFullName() in include/utils.php ?

Unfortunately there is not.

Closing this out. Unfortunately we cannot address this specific need.
