Re: Using Struct Admin in Dev Studio

Jason,

Developer Studio queries forms listed in the documentation for various 
purposes. Since struct admin user does not have permissions to these forms and 
their fields by default, you get that error.

You must create a group and then assign struct admin user to this group (along 
with struct admin group, which you have already done). Next, using 
arpermission utility you must add this group to all forms listed in the 
document and to their fields as well.

Alternatively you may log-in into Developer Studio as administrator and use 
bulk edit to assign permissions to forms and their fields.

Interesting, it sounds very similar to granting sub-administrator permissions: 
not only does the user need to belong to the generic security group (Sub 
Administrator or Struct Admin) but they must also belong to another group that 
has permissions to the appropriate objects.

I wasn't aware of the arpermission utility before, it sounds like it could come 
in handy for me in the future so thanks for mentioning it.

Re: Using Struct Admin in Dev Studio

2013-04-03 Thread Jason Miller
Thank you Aniruddha very much for verifying this.  Like Rick I was not
familiar with the arpermission utility.  I found it along with the
documentation text file in the ARSystem directory.

The two things I was stumbling were:

1) that I have to create a group other than Struct Admin to grant
permissions to the AR System forms rather than being able to grant the
Struct Admin group permissions directly.  I read the documentation that I
needed to create a group but it didn't occur what I needed to do with that
group because I couldn't figure out how to assign the group to
StructAdmin.  The second sentence also states
Struct Admin group needs access to all of those forms/fields.


When assigning Struct Admin permissions, you will need to create a group
to provide access to the objects from the schema and assign it to StructAdmin.
The following table lists all objects the Struct Admin permissions group
must provide.

Now that I read it again a little differently I see what it means.
 Basically it is a combination of two groups that grant access.  (I haven't
used Sub Administrator in years so I forgot about this)

2) it seemed odd that I would have to modify the permission of out of the
box forms to make this out of the box group/feature work.  I figured the
permission for Struct Admin would be baked in and wanted to verify before
overlaying all of those forms/fields.  It seems like
more customization than should be required.

Thanks!
Jason

Has anybody worked with Struct Admin?  I am figuring I am missing one
little detail.
