Paul Alexander Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Hello I'm trying to change the visibility of a new Catalog Item, which I've just created, but when I try to change who can and can't see this particular item I get this erro rmessage: I can manage OTHER catalog items in this service, so any ideas why I'm getting this please? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 @Paul Alexander if you let me know the service and catalog item where this happens I'll have a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Alexander Posted July 31, 2018 Author Share Posted July 31, 2018 Hi @Victor Service is 'People - My Employment' and the CI is 'Request Specsavers Eyecare Vouchers'. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Alexander Posted July 31, 2018 Author Share Posted July 31, 2018 @Victor .... I told you a lie...sorry. i CAN'T update other CI's in this service........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Just now, Paul Alexander said: I told you a lie *gasp I think you cannot amend CI subscriptions because the service is private and has an owner... hence only the owner can do the configuration....

Paul Alexander Posted July 31, 2018 Author Share Posted July 31, 2018 Yup....I think now you mention it that's exactly what it is...thanks for that. I'll bug the Service Owner and nag him to do the changes...I'm pretty sure he'll soon pass ownership to someone else (me, probably) if I annoy him enough! thanks.....

Victor Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 @Paul Alexander have a look if you can change those settings... the service Access and Owner... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Alexander Posted July 31, 2018 Author Share Posted July 31, 2018 I can.....that's handy....so I can change the Owner, change the CI visibility, then change the owner back and nobody will ever know I was here...sneaky....thank you! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Alexander Posted July 31, 2018 Author Share Posted July 31, 2018 Just a quick one on these Catalog Item settings....what hierarchy is used?! For instance, I am a member of VINCI PLC company. and the HR Admin Team. I have added this company and team and my account as subscribers to the service. I have then added the CI, and changed the visibility to Exclude everyone except the HRAdmin team and my account. However, I can't see the CI unless I add the VINCI PLC company to the 'Included' items. The reason I want to do this is because there are other CI's which are currently available for this service which SHOULD be visible by everyone, I just want to hide this one CI to everyone except myself so I can test it. Is there a way (without adding each individual user of the VINCI PLC Company) to do this please? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 52 minutes ago, Paul Alexander said: what hierarchy is used?! Hierarchy? There is no hierarchy... The way this works is that if there is an organisation structure (team, department, etc.) that is excluded from CI subscription, all users assigned to that organisation structure will not be subscribed to the CI regardless if they are members of other organisation structures... so, when you excluded VINCI PLC company, which you are a member of, you practically excluded yourself. It does not matter at this point that you are a member of the HR Admin Team (which are included)... same logic applies to the members of the HR Admin Team if they are also members of VINCI PLC...

Paul Alexander Posted July 31, 2018 Author Share Posted July 31, 2018 OK....so.... how would you suggest that I do what I'd like to do? Which is to give VINCI PLC Company access to the OTHER CI's in this service, but to only give the HR ADMIN Team access to another CI,, when there are people in the HR Admin team who are also members of the VINCI PLC Company please? Or am I making this more complicated than it needs to be?! (wouldn't be the first time.....) thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 You not making this more complicated but on the other hand, there isn't a simple answer... perhaps think of subscribing teams to services rather than teh company as a whole if you need to exclude/include specific teams to CIs...

Martyn Houghton Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 @Paul Alexander This is the post we have raised previously to allow for service subscriptions to inherit, which as Victor has advised is currently not supported. Cheers Martyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Alexander Posted August 1, 2018 Author Share Posted August 1, 2018 Thanks @Martyn Houghton Looks like I'm a little late to the game, but I'll add a +1 to your post to see if it'll bump it up a little! cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
