The relationship between Workfront license types and Workfront Planning permissions
The table below describes the relationship between the license type of a user in Adobe Workfront and the level of permissions you can grant to them to Adobe Workfront Planning objects based on that license.
Granting a user permissions to a workspace also grants them permissions to record types, records, and fields.
You must grant users separate permissions to views, in addition to the ones they have for workspaces, to be able to access and manage views.
Consider the following when working with record type permissions:
- Users automatically inherit record type permissions from workspaces.
- When a user has Manage permissions to a workspace, they cannot have a lesser access to a record type.
- Users cannot have greater permissions to a record type than they have for the workspace the record type belongs to.
- Removing users’ permissions to a record type does not remove their View access to all record types in the workspace, as this does not remove their permissions to the workspace.
Users can manage workspaces, record types, and views. They can create, edit, or delete workspaces, record types, records, fields, and views.
System administrators have Manage permissions to all workspaces, including the ones they did not create.
Users can view the workspaces shared with them, as well as the record types, records, and fields of those workspaces.
Users can view the views shared with them, but they cannot create their own.
Users cannot create, edit, or delete workspaces, record types, records, or fields.
