ALL: How do You Restrict the Object Level Access for Managed Permission Sets?

System administrators cannot directly alter managed permission sets from Certinia packages, as these modifications can disrupt package functionality. To restrict object-level access, administrators have two options. One option is to clone the existing permission set and then edit the new custom version. The second option is to create a muting permission set to restrict access granted by an existing set. It is a best practice to test any permission set restrictions in a sandbox environment before deploying to production.

Answer
  • The System Administrator is unable to make changes to the Managed Permission Sets that come with the Certinia Packages, these need to remain intact in order to ensure proper function for the Certinia Package Features.
  • There are two options that are available within Salesforce if the System Administrator would like to Restrict the Object-Level Access for other Permission Sets.
    • Clone the existing Permission Set and edit the Custom Permission Set that has been created to add or remove Object Level Access.
    • Create a Muting Permission Set restricting Object Level Access that has been granted with an existing Permission Set.
  • If the System Administrator would like to implement restrictions for other Permission Sets, it is best practice to perform testing within a Full Sandbox Org in order to confirm the changes in system behavior.
  • Making these changes would be considered a customization and the Certinia Support Team does not manage these customizations.
