I would like a particular group to be able to access a field in one view that they cannot access in another view. Right now the manager group has access to this field in all views because it is a field that assigns a work order to a person. But in the new view I want the other group to be able to assign themselves. Currently, they cannot see the field because they do not have access. Can anyone give me a simple formula they have used?? I have tried the following Hide when formula in the field:
The expression view = “MA” does not test whether “MA” is the current view because view does not tell you what view you’re in. Try @ViewTitle.
Incidentally, hide formulas are not a security feature. Users can view the field with the Document Properties dialog regardless of their role. If you want to prevent unauthorized access to the information, either encrypt it or store it in a separate document with a Readers field to control access.
Thanks for the response. The Security is not an issue and I do know what you are talking about. These users have another field that is computed for display that they use to see who the assignmet goes to. They just cannot see the actual editible field. I will change the code and let you know if it works.
