Advanced Field Protection
Advanced Field Protection is designed to give you control over which user may enter data in your ACT! fields. Each user may be assigned a protection scheme. Each protection scheme is composed of a list of:
- fields which are fully protected
- fields which are protected if not blank (therefore allowing the user to initialize them but not to modify them once initialized)
- tabs which are to be hidden (including system tabs).
Protect any field

Protected fields are simply disabled and no action can be taken to modify them. Protection is not tied to a layout. So a protected field will be protected no matter the layout.
Hide any tab
Advanced Field Protection also allows you to hide any tab including system tabs.
