Hello Community,


I just have a question since I've been stuck on this problem. Is it possible to explicitly give a read/write access for a role?

The scenario is that we have three roles namely Billing, Bookkeeper, and Accounting. For the information of all Bookkeeper has inherited Billing, likewise to Accounting with Bookkeeper. So we have hierarchy(Not sure if I use the right term) like this:

Billing > Bookkeeper > Accounting

Now lets say I have a field and we can call it account_number. I only want the roles of Billing and Accounting to have read and write access for the account_number field.

Since Bookkeeper has inherited the Billing I tried to restrict the Bookkeeper role using the "groups" so that it will have no access to field, but it restricts the accounting role also. Is there any other way or possible solution for this problem without changing or removing the inheritance of each role?

Thank you and may all of us have nice year ahead!

No, not with the inheritance (hierarchy).  If you want to have specific access you would have to create a new user access group (that is not inherited).  

Without customization, I think it would need to be a technical access group, and it would not appear in the UI so you'd have to manually add users from the group:
