projects tab dashboard

The PROJECTS tab dashboard contains the following components:

1. PROJECTS tab
2. Objects column
3. View column
4. Edit column
5. Delete column
6. Create column
7. Conditionals column

 

objects column

The Objects column lists all object-level entities governed by the Permission Set. This column is informational and displays the scope of records where permissions will be applied. 
 

view column

The View column controls record visibility within the object.

View LevelAccess ScopeVisibility DefinitionGovernance Impact
AnyGlobalUsers can view all records.Enables full downstream permission flexibility.
RelatedContextualUsers can view related records only.Restricts Edit/Delete to related or lower scope.
OwnIndividualUsers can view records they own.Limits downstream permissions to owned records.
NoneRestrictedUsers cannot view records.Blocks all additional permissions.


edit column

The Edit column defines the ability to modify object records.

Edit LevelAccess ScopeModification DefinitionGovernance Dependency
AnyGlobalUsers can edit all records.Allowed only if View = Any.
RelatedContextualUsers can edit related records only.Cannot exceed View scope.
OwnIndividualUsers can edit records they own.Restricted by View level.
NoneRestrictedUsers cannot edit records.Applies regardless of View.


delete column

The Delete column governs the ability to remove records from the object.

Delete LevelAccess ScopeDeletion DefinitionGovernance Dependency
AnyGlobalUsers can delete any record.Allowed only if View and Edit = Any.
RelatedContextualUsers can delete related records only.Cannot exceed View/Edit scope.
OwnIndividualUsers can delete records they own.Restricted by View/Edit level.
NoneRestrictedUsers cannot delete records.Applies regardless of other permissions.


create column

The Create column grants the ability to generate new records within the object. This permission is enabled via checkbox selection. When checked, users can create new records aligned with their configured access scope and object visibility permissions.

 

conditionals column

The Conditionals column allows administrators to apply exception-based permissions on top of the base object configuration. Instead of modifying global access, conditionals create governance overlays that adjust permissions only when specific criteria are met.

For example, a permission set may grant users standard access to all objects. Using conditionals, administrators can add an exception such as restricting access completely for that specific project type like Mass Tort. In this scenario, users retain their general permissions across all other records, while access to the restricted classification remains limited. 

This enables firms to control sensitive operational data without restructuring the entire permission framework.
