Permissions and Edit User Roles
August 14, 2012, 07:16:55 pm
Hi - not sure if this is misbehaving, or i have done something that is messing with this, or if i am just misunderstanding.

I want a User to have access to some Cases but not all of them.

So I do not give them Permission = CiviCase: access all cases and activities

But when I remove it, their ability to edit User Roles on their cases disappears and they no longer see the Actions column on the Case Manager screen.

Is this expected?

I don't think it's the desired state, just you'd have to make sure that if someone without 'access all cases' has the ability to create/edit relationships that it wouldn't then provide a backdoor to giving themselves access to all cases. That's the only reason I can think the roles editing might be the way it is (i.e. roles are just relationships, so maybe relationship editing is blocked, and hence so is role editing).
