Privileges Required to see Tabs and Links

Tabs and links can be hidden from users using a set of registry entries. You specify the levels in the /configuration/ui/visibility/Levels registry entry; it must be set to a comma-separated list of roles. The roles must be entered in ascending order starting with the role that should have the most limitations and ending with the most privileged role. Note that this does not grant any additional privileges, it merely restricts the privileges a user has.

Note that these registry entries are generated using the System_CreateEditScreenEntries Process Definition.

The following table lists the values

Key Value Description
Levels <Comma separated list of roles, treated as levels from lowest to highest>

Tabs/<ObjectType>/<TabName> <Minimum level to see this tab> <Filled in by Process Definition as the translation of for ObjectType/TabName>
Links/<ObjectType> <Minimum level to see New&#8230;/Edit&#8230; links next to fields for this object type>

The following registry entries, as well as their children (not shown), will be generated by the System_CreateEditScreenEntries Process Definition:

/configuration/ui/visibility/Levels

/configuration/ui/visibility/Links/<object_type>/<tab_name>

/configuration/ui/visibility/Tabs/<object_type>/<tab_name>
