Pretty often I face the problem of inability to limit visibility of data that’s not intended for a certain user group. So I created multiple views per group of members/users. But this isn’t helpful enough. Ideally, I’d love to even be able to hide the tabs of multiviews where necessary.
Case:
I have team mates & I have clients.
Mates can see almost all project data.
Clients can see very limited subset of that. At the same time clients still see lots of empty related data areas - it’s a subpar UX. Therefore, if I decide to create multiviews here per user type, I’d prefer to have the tabs in this case completely invisible, so they can’t switch the tab and see what other data could in theory be of interest to them.
I’m currently building out a ‘simpler’ PMS to showcase Fibery for a larger company we’ve just merged with. There are several non-technical people, so the current complexity makes Fibery a non-starter atm, but I’m hoping with a few tweaks like this, I’ll have a chance.
Hiding fields with rules and automating the locking of entities (to avoid inadvertent edits) would also help immensely with selling Fibery to the board!
We don’t have short term plans to work on automated ‘locking’ but potentially a thoughtful design of entity permissions via people fields, combined with automation rules, could achieve the same end goal.
No ETA, but work on it is likely to start next week
