Record Ownership

Updated 3 years ago by Niall Clifford

In Maximizer, many entries have an Owner field, or Full Access and Read Access fields. These fields control who can view or edit the entry. Users can access their own private records, all publicly owned records, and private records owned by their group.

Sometimes it’s important to allow users to have private entries because some entries aren’t meant to be shared with your entire organization. In Maximizer, it’s possible to specify Full Access and Read Access to specific users or groups for each entry in the Address Book. In addition to Address Book entries, you can specify ownership of notes, documents, and other types of entries.

When a user creates a new Address Book entry, he or she can designate access for that entry. Full Access or Read Access can be granted to specific users or groups, or it can be Public.

To be able to use the Full Access, or Read Access fields, the user must have the “Allow private entries” access right enabled.
