[rt-users] Custom Field Permissions

2016-05-15 Thread Satyajeet Singh
Hi All,

If I grant a group, permission to modify custom fields in a queue then the
restrictions for the same group on a specific custom filed is ignored. Is
there any way I make RT to honor the custom field permissions irrespective
of what queue permissions are?

Thank you.

[rt-users] Custom Field Permissions

2007-01-03 Thread John Arends
There are some custom fields that basically apply to a good portion of 
my queues like "Machine Affected."


Let's say I have 2 different groups of people that need to work with 
tickets. Since their areas are so different, I create a queue for each 
facility, and a group for each facility.


So I have "Queue A" and the people in "Group A" have full rights to that 
 queue.


Then I have "Queue B" and all the people in "Group B" have full rights 
to that queue. They can't see eachother's queues and really have no 
reason to.


So I create the "Machine Affected" custom field, and use it in both 
Queue A and Queue B. I give both Group A and Group B the rights to see 
and modify this custom field. Because each group can only work on its 
own tickets, I would guess being able to modify the custom field in a 
ticket that a person can not see wouldn't matter.


Is there any inherent security problem in doing this? It seems silly for 
me to make "A Machine Affected" and "B Machine Affected." Can I safely 
use the same custom field in this situation?
