Customising Contacts data grid Your last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

Hi all, ive been experimenting with limiting what users can see what Contacts on an Account. At the moment i have it so the Contacts datagrid is filtered so a user can only see contacts they have created and no others. I have done this by creating a global join and adding a condition in the SQL of the datagrid so that:

Contact.Userinfo.Userid -- is equal to -- :userid (this gets the id of the user who is currently loged on.)

What i would like is to get the datagrid to filter so users can see contacts created by other users from their department (this being the department found in Administrator -> General -> Department) and no others.

I was naive enough to think that :department would work the same as :userid but no such luck.

Any ideas?

First of all, Remove your Custom Join/Condition
Next, Join from the Contact table to the User Info utilizing the AcctMgrID (A Global Join is probably already available for this).
Then, add a Condition for the Department field out of the UserInfo table

On the Popup box for the Condition, set the Operator to "IN", click on the Use Valueas Literal, and type the following on the value box:
(SELECT DEPARTMENT FROM USERINFO WHERE USERID = :USERID)

The end result is embedding a Subquery into your Grid's conditions.
