Description

Default permission mask while creating new activity

Default Value

750

Possible Values

Combination of read, write, and execute permission that you want to give to each type of user (Owner, Other groups to which the owner belongs, and Users outside the owner's group)

Selection Criteria

The permission property contains a 3-digit number, where:

  • 1st digit represents the level of permission for Owner
  • 2nd digit represents the level of permission for other groups to which the owner belongs 
  • 3rd digit represents the level of permission for users outside the owner's group


There are 3 level of permission for every level of user:

  • Read
  • Write 
  • Execute


Each level has a specific number assigned to it.

  • Read - 4
  • Write - 2 
  • Execute - 1


So based on these numbers, you can assign each type of user, any of the following digits:

7 = 4+2+1 (Read + Write + Execute)

  • 6 = 4+2 (Read + Write)
  • 5 = 4+1 (Read + Execute)
  • 4 = 4 (Read)
  • 3 = 2+1 (Write + Execute)
  • 2 = 2 (Write) 
  • 1 = 1 (Execute)


For Example - 750 (default value) means each user has the default permissions:
Administrator - 7 - Read + Write + Execute
Group - 5 - Read + Execute
Other - 0 - None
