Access Module showing all buttons, the Add +, the remove - and the Edit Pencil

Products

• CA Identity Suite

Issue/Introduction

After upgrading the Access Module is now showing all buttons, the Add +, the remove - and the Edit Pencil even before any permissions are assigned:

In prior versions only the available option buttons are shown, so a user without a Permission would only see the Add + sign.

Environment

Identity Portal 14.5

Cause

This was an change in functionality to offer more options to our end clients.   We provide an option to switch between the different functionalities so clients can choose which they prefer. 

Resolution

To change the functionality

1. Login to the Identity Portal Admin Console
   
   
2. Navigate to the Setup --> GUI Configuration --> User Related --> General Info
   
   
3. Change strict_cart_mode to true.
   
   

 

After this change only the Add + sign is shown for unassigned permissions and the remove - and edit pencil for assigned permissions:

Additional Information

Please note: This does change the ability to assign permissions, specifically sub-permissions will not be assignable if a user is not also assigned to the parent permission.
