Record Visibility Settings By Role in Shape Software

Adjusting Record Visibility for your Users

Shape Software provides a flexible data sharing design that allows you to expose different data sets to different sets of users, so users can do their job without seeing data they don’t need to see. Define how user roles within your system are able to view records.

By default, admins and managers can see all records. Users and Portal Users can only see their assigned records. Customize your record visibility by role in this settings pages.

Start by clicking “Settings” in the top gradient navigation bar and you will find “Record Visibility by Role” under the “Users & Permissions” dropdown.

Simply click the “Choose” option under the Action column to find the edit button where you can select the record visibility for each user role.

Options for record visibility are different for each user role:

  • User: Assigned Records Only, All Records
  • Manager: Assigned Records Only, All Records, All Team Records
  • Director: Assigned Records Only, All Records, All Team Records
  • Admin: Assigned Records Only, All Records
  • Portal User: Assigned Records Only, All Records

Managers and Directors in your system are the only roles in Shape available to have just their team records visible to them as they can have teams assigned to them!
