Hello
Does anyone know if it is possible to create a security task/roll that will allow a user to maintain a vendor, but create one?

Thank you

I’m pretty sure you can, although you’ll need to set up Field level Security as well. Depending on what other functions you want this person to have with relation to Vendors, you would make a copy of task CARD_0301 and strip out unneeded functions while keeping Vendor Maintenance.
Then you could create a Field Level Security item to remove access to any fields/buttons on the Vendor Maintenance form you don’t want the person to update/have access to.

I’m in with here..
As soon as you give access to any user to any “Maintenance” form in GP, they will have the same ability to create / update / delete a record.. unless you put in some limitation like it was mentioned with Field Level Security.. and even that I’d have to find a creative way of doing it by probably putting some passwords on key fields or buttons.
GP Power Tools has a developer module with triggers that you could code to control the Vendor Maintenance form, and based on the user account that is trying to access the form, forbid the creation of new vendor cards.?

is correct. A simple GP Power Tools trigger on the Vendor ID field can be used to stop the entry of a Vendor ID that does not already exist for selected users (or for everyone, but selected users).

I don’t think field level security can do what is needed. When I originally wrote Field Level Security (as Omni Field Security), it had scripting capabilities, but these were removed when Microsoft purchased the module from me.

Hi

I, honestly, do not think so, but you can test out the two operations below by creating a new security task and assigning one of them to it
