Introduction

By default, users have access to all case and home information within their organization as well as all of the Views on the sidebar. Enabling the “Navigation Access Control” feature for your organization allows you to restrict user to access to just the cases and homes on a user’s workspace, restrict or hide all or some Views, as well as the ability to restrict search.

The following navigation elements can be hidden from end users:

  • My Stuff Menu Section
  • Cases Menu Section
  • Homes Menu Section
  • Summaries Menu Section
  • Search
  • Workspace Edit Controls

The feature is an advanced organization setting, named “System: Enable navigation show/hide settings (advanced)”.

How to Get Set-Up
