Hide Item after creation?

[MTimmis_ADSK]

Hi,

Another question, which I have been unable to find any reference to on the forum.

I have one user setup with limited acces to a single workspace, who needs to be able to create an Item, Save it, then never view, edit or go back to it.

What I would like to do is have the Item hide from them once they have saved. But all Items to be visible to other users within PLM 360.

Basically I am creating a customer feedback form, customers all log in with the same generic login, as mentioned above to create an Item for themseleves. But, I want the Item to hide on creation, so that the generic user can't go trauling through everyone elses feedback Items. But other Admin users can log in and see all of the Item records entered by customers using this generic user login.

Is this function possible?

Thanks in advance.

Michael,

Yes this is possible to do with a little work.

They basic Idea, Have one user make it, but only have another user read it:

            This would be solved by the permission “View Records Owned by Others”

                        Would need two roles, one for the generic account one for everyone else

Now that works but we have an owner that can’t see his own document:

            This would be solved by a behavior script “on creation”

                        This script would consist of changing the owner of the record.

What would this script look like:

var currentUser = Security.loadUser (userID);
item.master.additionalOwners.push (currentUser);

item.master.owner=Security.loadUser('Timmis, Micheal’); 

However I do suggest requesting a one-step permission setting in the IdeaStation 🙂

Hi Joe, thanks for the quick reply.

I tried to achieve this behaviour with Roles/Permissions. But for the Creator to add an Item, they have to have Add and View rights to access the Workspace and create a new Item.

However this also allows them to see every other Item created by the same generic user.

Ideally I want them to be able to Add, but not View the Items!

The method I outlined above will do just that.

Thanks again Joe, I will try your method and see if it gives what I am after.
