Save Group Queries
Members or groups with this privilege
are allowed to add, edit, and
delete group-level saved queries for any group they
are a member of.
Save Group Report Formats
Members or groups with this privilege
are allowed to add, edit, and
delete group-level saved report formats for any group they
are a member of.
Edit Record Visibility
When a record is added, it is made visible to all groups the
user is a member of. Members with this privilege are
allowed to explicitly select which other groups may view the
record when it is added, and also change what groups
may view the record at any later time. If a user does not
have this privilege and Record-Level Security is enabled,
then when they add a new record the visibility of the
record is based on the
General Preferences
settings related to Record-Level Security. Typically you
should add this privilege for internal users and exclude it
from external users.
This privilege is only meaningful if Record-Level Security is
enabled. User groups without this privilege will not see the
field "Make Visible to These User Groups" on the Add page.
Can Be Assignee For Add
All members of groups with this privilege appear
in the Assignee list when a record is added. This
allows you to limit who a record can be initially
assigned to.
Edit Query Result Set
All members of groups with this privilege are allowed to
perform a query and then perform an edit that affects
all the records in the query result set. If a user is
also a member of a group with Delete privilege, then
they can perform a delete of all records matching a query.
Add Attachments via Add Page
All members of groups with this privilege are allowed to
add an Attachment on the Add page (along with the original
problem record). To subsequently modify attachments
(Edit, Delete, or Add additional attachments), a user
must also be a member of a group with the Edit Attachments
privilege.
Override Record-Level Security
All members of groups with this privilege are allowed to
view all the problem records, irrespective of whether or
not Record-Level Security has been enabled.
This is typically used to allow members of "internal"
user group(s) to view records added by all other "external"
user group(s) without having to be a member of every user group.
Users with this privilege and with Edit Record Visibility privilege
can set the visibility of any record to any set of User Groups (not
just to User Groups to which they belong).
This privilege is only meaningful if Record-Level Security is
enabled.
