#2741 - How hide Select button in subpanels?

Open Feature created by Ward Verified Purchase 4 years ago

Today it seems impossible (without adding custom code to every module) for us to hide the 'Select' button from certain subpanels for certain Roles. This permission loophole allows the user to add Contacts or Accounts etc. to records via subpanels even though they do not have Create permission for that module.

Offering the ability to use Teams Edition to selectively hide subpanels via Custom Group Layouts (see https://store.suitecrm.com/support/securitysuite/2712) would cover most use cases, but to cover all use cases, controlling the 'Select' button in Role management would close remaining permission issues - can you add 'Select' to the Role tool, just like you added 'Create'?

    Also the role changing of edit permissions to NONE has no effect either. it renders the module and is easily bypassed by anyone since it allows select and it allows them to make a record a member of any sec group they want! Only way is to disable access altogether but then you have no idea what sec group the record is in.. ??..!! ??

      Have you tried setting the Security Groups List/Detail rights to Group? That should set the select to only show the groups that they are in so that they can only select their own groups.

    I tried your suggestion however even after setting them all to NONE, it still allows the user to select ANY security group. (Lists and shows all sec groups)

      I stand corrected, I looked again at the user and he had another group that allowed it assigned. I missed that. After removing the offending group it did as you stated! Brilliant!

      Those sneaky additional groups! Glad that you were able to get it working as you need it.
