Mike, Actually, it is easier than you are describing.
You don't need to worry about the Assignee Group at all. That group is related to row level security where you want to restrict access to ROWS. All you need to do is create a group for the permission you want. Maybe that group is called something like "License Management". Then, you change the permissions on the field(s) of interested to NOT allow Public access, but allow only this one group access. This would mean that this COLUMN is available only to users who are members of that group. NOTE: There is an "Allow Any User to Submit" option within permissions. If you want to allow other users to see the field so they can SUBMIT new entries with this data but then not be able to see the contents after submit, you can select this box. If you don't want users to even know of the existance of the field, make sure that this option is NOT turned on and they will not see the field at all. I hope this helps, Doug Mueller ________________________________ From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of Michael Burton Sent: Tuesday, May 31, 2011 6:46 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Hide fields from some users ** Hi, I've been given a spread sheet of Software CI's to import in to our system and one of the columns contains licence keys. We do not want everybody to be able to see these, so, if for example I only want a purchasing and internal support group to have access to this field, how could I restrict that? I'm thinking that I'll have to do it using "Assignee Group" and maybe create a new group called Licence Management (or something similiar) Am I barking up the wrong tree? Thoughts?
