I am working with SharePoint 2010. I need some help in regarding permissions:
Only current user can see his document created by him, he should not see other document.
Other user apart from creator of document should not see or should not delete the document.
While approver will see the document, he can only view the document he should not delete the document.
And while approver will see the document he should not get the add new document option(For this i have given permission Read Only, View Only permission but still while approver login to system he get add new document option.)
How can I give permissions described above?
There are so many question i'll answer one-by-one.
1) The best way to do is by creating new view or modifying view of library, set filter criteria to "Created by is equal to [Me]" & save. The creater of document can only see this document.
2) If others are not able to see the documents then how can they edit or delete.
3) For this you need to create new permission level which have rights of approve item,open library.
4) Just simple not check the add items checkbox in permission level.
I hope this will help you!

I am actually new to SharePoint permissions stuff. I really need someone help to guide me or give me a hint.
I have a SharePoint 2013 list, with items. User create a item using Nintex forms and when item is created, Nintex Workflow get trigger.
The idea behind this list is, User A will create a item then User B will review it and approve/reject.
After User A create item, item permission should change to 'Read' so that user A doesn't change any value of item until user B take some action.
In Workflow, I am changing the item permission using 'Set Item Permission' action and setting permission as Read.
But the problem is after
1) User A created item, he is not able to view/read item but able to edit item.
I selected item through list and click on 'view item' through ribbon, I am getting error 'Sorry, you don't have access to his page'.
I clicked on eclipse of item, selected Shared with->ADVANCED I am seeing the user A have view/read permission.
Then I made sure through 'Workflow history' if action got executed or not, it seems action got executed successfully.
This is really weird how user is able to edit item but not able to view item?
I really appreciate if anyone can provide any hint or help to make item readable.
Can you click on the list item, and check permissions for that item. You can click on Shared With -> Advanced. Then from the ribbon choose Check permissions. Enter the User A name and see what permissions he has.
And if he has more than Read, it means workflow has not finished its job. So check the workflow. It should break any inheriting permissions on that list item and then set unique permissions for only User B. This will take away the permissions from User A.
A second approach would be to make a form status column and connect it to submit button.
Return a value eg. Submitted to the column once the form is submitted by A.
Now in nintex form designer,select the control and add rule to disable the control if form status == "Submitted".
I have a Sharepoint list that I'm using as a form. Everyone in the company needs to view/modify the form to submit information, but I would like to keep the response from the form viewable to just a few people. Is there a way to do that, without clicking each item and managing permissions for that item? Can that be done with a workflow?
One approach:
Set up the list so users can only see and edit their own responses. (List settings > Advanced settings > set Read Access and Create and Edit access to "Items that were created by the user".
Create a SharePoint group for people who should see all items, e.g. ListManagers
Set up list permissions so that Visitors (everyone in the company) have Contribute access and the ListManagers group gets full access for the list.
Another option:
Leave the Advanced settings at the default, so that everyone can see all items.
Change the default view of the list to show only items created by the current user.
Create a page that shows an XLV with the default view and serve that to everybody.
Create another page that shows an XLV with all items and give permissions for that page only to the limited group of people.
The second method is more for convenience than for security and will not prevent savvy users from accessing the data they cannot see in the default view.
I have requirement to prevent users from editing a list item through UI.
I want to edit item only through programmatic way.
I want to prevent them from editing items from default edit page of the list.
Any suggestion are grateful...
Sharepoint permissions will even stop the user from editing the items programatically. (unless runwithelevatedprivileges is used). Another solution would be to hide [edit item] option using javascript.
You can do with SharePoint permissions.
Navigate to Site Actions > Site Permissions and select the user (they might be part of a SharePoint group, so check inside them too). Check the check box next to the user name and select Edit User Permissions from the ribbon. Then ensure that View Only and Read check boxes are checked for that specific user.
Hope this helps!
I have created an InfoPath 2010 form which is published to doc library in SharePoint 2010. I want for this form to become read-only ie once it has been submitted.
None of what I have done so far seems to work. I have:
Created a new view and re-named it to Read-Only and in its properties I have ticked
the "Read-Only" check box in InfoPath.
I have a "Submit Form" button and in here I have added rules for submitting the form,
switching the view to the read-only view.
To test this I fill out the form with sample data and submit it, then when I go to
the doc library where the forms gets submitted to when I open the submitted form I
find that the Read-Only view has not taken effect and that it is still possible to
edit the form.
Ideally what I am trying to achieve is to have the submitted forms turned into read-only when they are submitted and still be in read-only mode when these are opened from the document library where they get submitted to.
Any ideas where I'm going wrong with this? if there is a better and simpler way to achieve this please let me know.
Thanks in advance.
It might be too late to answer this question, but if someone is still looking for an answer you could try the below steps
Before you begin please verify that you have one of the following permissions:
a. You are a member of the Administrators group for the site collection.
b. You are a member of the Owners group for the site.
c. You have the Manage Permissions permission.
On the Site Settings page, Go to the Users and Permissions and look for settings
Under Settings you will be able to see Permission Levels
Select Add a Permission Level
Give a Name to you new Permission Level
Under the Select the Permissions to include to this permission level, select the Add Items and View Items Permissions to this group.
After the group is created, for your form library, stop inheriting the permissions from the parent site and create a new group with the new Permission Level that you just created. Add all the users to the group.
This should enable the users to submit a form but not edit it. Hope this helps.
There is an easier way to solve this. Create two views of this form on InfoPath Designer. And make sure when the form is submitted, the view is flipped to the Read-Only view; which has the salient feartures of the form such as the answers you would like to be recorded.
So anyone who opens the form once submitted wil only see the Read-Only view. You can set a rule on the form to have an administrator see a Edit mode.
I just went through this. the submit rule doesn't work, you have to create a form load rule. In the file toolbar, you'll see a form load button in the rules block.
Why can I not (as admin or user) edit a user profile? When I click Edit Item I can only attach a file and I only see the account name. I've gone into the admin area but nothing I change takes affect. I've set some other fields as editable but they don't show. I tried to edit user policies but everything is greyed out.
Are you populating your user profiles from AD? In that case, there is nothing in SP to edit since the data comes from elsewhere.
If not, then where are you trying to edit an item? Are you using Manage User Profiles in the User Profile Service Application area?
