My Odoo application was not responding to my record rule

Question

I have a odoo application in there I created a new group named as officer and provided read only access to the class hr.employee through acl and then I wrote a record rule that

<field name="domain_force">[('user_id','!=',user.id)]</field>
<field eval="0" name="perm_unlink"/>
<field eval="0" name="perm_write"/>
<field eval="1" name="perm_read"/>
<field eval="0" name="perm_create"/>


<field name="domain_force">[('user_id','=',user.id)]</field>
<field eval="0" name="perm_unlink"/>
<field eval="1" name="perm_write"/>
<field eval="1" name="perm_read"/>
<field eval="0" name="perm_create"/>

to make the user record alone should bee editable, but still all records are in the hr.employee class editable. I don't know to how to fix it?

Answer 1

In your example you are giving only write permision

<field eval="1" name="perm_write"/>

To give only read permission use

<field eval="0" name="perm_unlink"/>
<field eval="0" name="perm_write"/>
<field eval="1" name="perm_read"/>
<field eval="0" name="perm_create"/>

After creating group, then you must check them in settings -> groups to make sure your restrictions are applied correctly and if they are applied correctly and you still didn't get your desired result you must check for other groups too, maybe another group is allowing/restricting user.

Good luck
