[Vtigercrm-developers] Dashboards/Widgets and Security...

[Alan Lord]

Here's a use-case for VT6 that isn't really covered by the existing 
design of the Dashboard and other widgets from what I can tell.

We recently implemented VT6 for a customer and they are pretty happy 
with it. They sell hardware and services via a fairly small network of 
dealers.

They give each dealer a single login to vtiger with a fairly restrictive 
profile so they can basically just manage their Leads.

The issue comes with the Dashboard, esp. the History Widget, (and 
probably the Activity [modTracker] widget on the summary page too but I 
haven't checked that one). When they first tested logging as a Dealer 
they were limited to seeing their own Lead records which is fine and 
expected. But the Dashboard History Widget shows *all* activities. This 
could, for example, show that a Lead had been assigned to a different 
Dealer in the same country, or perhaps a derogatory comment regarding a 
Dealer/Customer).

Comments/Suggestions?

Cheers
