Maybe you have a business requirement in SharePoint list to restrict visibility of some information to some users based on security or other considerations. Also you may want to disable some actions such as Create View, Edit View, E-mail a Link, Export to Excel<\/em><\/strong>, etc. for some users or set? different default views for different users.<\/p>\n

Column\/View Permission 4.0<\/a> can easily help you complete the above requirements.<\/p>\n

Compared with the previous version of Column\/View Permission, this version has a new UI that makes it clear and easy use. As well there is a new central area for viewing and managing permissions and a Preview function which helps administrators quickly understand permissions for different users and groups. Upgrading to Column\/View Permission 4.0 will give you a distinct advantage over the previous version and will also give you more powerful conditions and the ability to hide columns in datasheet view.<\/p>\n

Let us now look at a how we can complete the requirements we mentioned above.<\/p>\n

Here are the parameters for this case study:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. In this list, four fields need to be hidden for all users except the manager. Here we assume that all views, including one or all of the four fields, except My Task view need to be hidden.<\/em><\/li>\n
  2. A default view needs to be set for different user groups so that it’s convenient to access the view which they visit the most.<\/em><\/li>\n
  3. Set up a permission so that some users cannot create and edit view and set alert on this list.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Now let us take a step-by-step look at how to achieve our goal.<\/p>\n
