  • 1.  Granting Calendar Edit Rights with a Group (not instance)

    Posted Oct 21, 2013 02:59 PM
    Hello, has anyone in 13.1 identified a way to grant a resource the ability to edit ONLY their calendar using a security group global right vs. an instance right?
    We have a group of non-management users (all with the same security group) that we want to allow to edit their own calendar, but not someone elses. The goal is to avoid the maintenance involved with using the "Resource - Edit Calendar" at an instance level for each user.

    Thank You

    Sounds as if you are asking to have parametric rights give to a group, that is the right would be limited to the instance of the member of the group.
    Clarity does not offer that.
    The only place I know of any thing similar is the display conditions. In some cases the display condition can be who the user is or at least group or something related to the user, but the calendar view is not a view where you can put display condition.

    Out of box this is not possible. You can write a process for doing this. It works pretty good without breaking anything..

    Hello,

    you could create a group for each user and give the instance right in the group for the corresponding resource instead directly to the resource...

    It's not very "PRO" but it's Clarity

    hmmmm....

      Resource - Edit Calendar is available OOTB as an instance permission. I'm 90% one could make a process like the Set PM as Collaboration Manager process that automagically grants each resource edit permissions on their Calendar...

     

       I see all kinds of opportunities for these little 'helpers' here but not enough time to do 'em all. If someone else wants to jump on this - go for it. Otherwise, maybe I'll stick my nose into this if its quiet over the December holidays.
