User / Group Permission for a Custom List

Question

I would like to create a custom security permission to a custom list.

This is a custom list to store user late record with their two level approval (Line manager & HR).

Items list must be visible for each owner (user) and his manager plus all HR members only.

how to achieve this?

Answer 1

First, you must have permissions to administer permissions.  If you don't have them, them you'll need them, or work with the person who has them.

1. Create a new group.
2. Assign members to the group
3. Assign group to the list, granting the desired permission. 

It is possible that you'll need to create a new permission, and assign custom permission levels to it. (Again, you'll need the right permissions to do this.)

When view the list, select List Settings / Permissions for this list.

This will not work.

I need that for each user.

Answer 3

It isn't a perfect solution but you can break inheritance on each item and then set the permissions individually with a workflow.

You may hit scaling issues if/when you have lots of individual security levels in the database, however O365 seems to handle them without blinking and i heard a rumour that 2013 was more resilient than 2010 anyway.

Answer 4

Skip the Group step, and just assign the person directly, then.

Answer 5

Hi Hussain,

In this list, you can stop inheriting permissions and remove permissions.

Then, you can create a workflow to set permission when a new item is created.
