#3828 - Users assigned under additional users wont act as owner of the record - cannot view the records
Hi Team,
We have created a role & set the records to be viewed owner only. The users assigned under assigned user field was able to view the records in the module , but additional users part of the record cannot view the records.
Do we need to do anything ? is this a bug?
Kindly let us know , Thanks.

A couple of questions:
This will help pinpoint what the cause could be as the functionality does work in general.

Thanks for sending this over! I will take a look at the Projects module and see what may be causing this. That module is a bit different than a standard module which just means that a patch may need to be made to handle however Projects is doing things.

Yes. How were you able to add Additional Assigned Users to a Project record? That module isn't an assignable module by default so the Assigned To or Additional Assigned Users aren't available. Was it a custom addition?

The Project Manager field is functioning as Assigned to , and the additional users field is available after installing security suite, its not custom addition

How were you able to add the Additional Assigned Users field to the Project interface? It shouldn't be available as the module isn't defined as "assignable" in its vardefs.php. I'm asking in order to get a better understanding of what could be going on here. Because the module isn't "assignable" in the last line of the vardefs, the Additional Assigned Users shouldn't show as an option in Studio and wouldn't apply at the permissions level. What may work is to make it assignable by adding it to the createVardefs() call at that bottom of the file. I haven't tested this, but look at another module's vardefs such as Tasks to see what that would look like.

I see , not sure .. I can see the Additional Assigned Users field in the studio .. We havent done any customisation here , was able to see as soon as installing enterprise security suite.. Can you please help me with exact changes we need to do , so that I can test it out with Projects .. if you can help with patch also fine with me ..

Also just reviewed Projects module, I can see the below line at vardefs.php
VardefManager::createVardef('Project', 'Project', array('security_groups','assignable',));

Also , I tried to change that line as below
VardefManager::createVardef('Project', 'Project', array( 'default', 'assignable', 'security_groups', ));
and did a quick repair , still the additional users cannot see the projects

Also seems like this additional users functionality itself not working , ie when an user is part of additional user he/she cannot see the record when the owner only role is assigned, but he can see the record when part of assigned to .. I have tested this with Tasks module now , its same there as well.. where I understand the Additional assigned user is not acting as owner .. can you please help here & do the needful.. Thank you

Unfortunately these are unrelated. Has anything changed recently in your SuiteCRM instance? For example, was your SuiteCRM instance recently updated? If so, to which version?

Is this still an issue for you? If so, I believe the issue has been resolved by addressing some PHP Notice messages that caused unexpected behavior. This has been addressed in 3.1.29 and has been tested on 7.11.22. Tasks additional users with Owner access are able to access those tasks as expected.
