Setting up Fields and Links Permissions

Setting up Fields & Links Permissions

Set Access Permissions for Fields

With the field-level security, you can allow your customers to control the access rights of CRM fields for various profiles. This will ensure smooth security at the field-level, allowing users to access the fields that are relevant to their job profile. If needed, you can also enable or disable views or edit permissions for all the fields except the mandatory ones.

For example, "Sales Stage" and "Amount" fields in the Potentials module may not be required for a person looking at customer support. Similarly, "Status" of the cases can be hidden for the users other than customer support persons.

To manage field-level access
  1. Login to Zoho Developer Console and click CRM for Verticals.
  2. Select the application in which field level access has to be set and click Edit.
  3. Click Permissions in the left pane and select the Fields & Links Permissions tab.

      All the fields available in the selected module will be listed. By default, Visibility will be selected for all the fields. 
  5. Click Edit.
