Setting record ownership in script
I have a setup with Account and Account_Transaction. A portal user creates the Account records when they initially sign up, so the ownership of that record is correctly assigned to the portal user. Account_Transaction entries are created via a script that is triggered by a different role, and will create transactions in multiple accounts, owned by multiple users that are different than the user that triggers the script. Users are only allowed to see transactions in their own account. The report filter does not allow me to traverse the parent relationship to the account and filter on Account.Added_User, and I am not allowed to set the Added_User field to anything other than zoho.loginuser or zoho.adminuser, so I have resorted to adding a proxy field that I need to manually set for any of the places I have a similar requirement, and use that in report filters.
This is, obviously not optimal. Among other things, it is a maintenance nightmare. Is there some way that I can properly assign the record ownership?
