Alternative to ACL roles?

Greetings,

I have a large application which will be used in about 100 countries. Certain people in each country need to read only and others need to edit documents only related to the respective country. I am using Readers and Authors field. However I can not create two roles (read/edit) for each country because of 75 roles limit.

I could split the database but that willresult in 100 databaes which will not be good since all data need to be centralized in the head office.

What is a good solution for this?

Thank you in advance

You could use groups and readers fields.

Form each country create two groups, say, UK-Readers and UK-Authors.

On all the UK documents make sure you include the appropriate group in a Readers/Authors field.

Thanks - this seems to work fine with using profile documents.
