Nested Users (sub-users) - ejh - May 19th, 2015
I am new to Form Tools and I had a question about Nested Users (sub-users). Here is the situation, I have different geographic locations that send me reports (forms) from all their clients.
Each geographic location manages (CRUD) their reports from their clients. I do NOT want geographic locations having access to each other's reports or seeing each other's clients and other info).
The clients for each geographic location send their reports to that office. I also want the clients to see the reports that they have submitted, but not see the reports of other clients.
Is this possible with the core build and current modules?
Thank you for reading and any advice offered.

I would set a different view for each of your geographical locations. Then you could filter the results for the view. You will have to have something to filter by though, so maybe one of the form fields should list the geographical areas. Just a thought!

Alex,
Thanks. That then leaves me with each client viewing their data at each geo-local. I guess then filter the view by geo-local and client ID then?

Oh gotcha, I misread your first post. I thought you wanted them to see all the forms for their geo-local. I *think* with client map filters you can can create a filter that only shows their own forms.
Another thought would be to somehow use the submission accounts module.
I haven't tried any of this but I imagine what you want to do is do-able.
