Creating Recruiting app

Hi,

 

I am very much new to the salesforce

 

I am creating recruiting app using a following book

http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/fundamentals/salesforce_creating_on_demand_apps.pdf

 

in its security and sharing data section I have created a user Phil Katz, and trying to make this as a DBA owner as per the steps given in the book but I am getting error saying

 

Transfer Requires Read The new owner must have "Read" permissions on this type of record.

Click hereto return to the previous page.

 

how to get it resolved, how to provide read access to this new user.

 

please suggest

 

Thanks,

Manish.

Refer to https://help.salesforce.com/apex/HTViewHelpDoc?id=users_license_types_available.htm&language=en_US

 

The first few lines of the docs  will tell you why you can't grant Read access to the user Phil Katz whose licence type is "Salesforce Platform" and profile is "Standard platform user""

 

As Satish suggested, for Phil Katz, change the User licence to salesforce and then try changing the profile to 'Standard Profile'.

 

Since in your org, all the user licence are in use by active users, you first need to free up atleast 1 license.

 

To get an overview of your org's user liceses go to ,

Administartion Setup > Company Information > scroll down to the section User Licenses .

 

In order to free up atleast 1 license and give Phil Katz the necessary access do this -

Users > click on a user that has the standard user profile > Click Edit > Chnage the User License and Profile to something else. > Save

 

Now go to the User detail page of Phil Katz and Change the User license to Salesforce and Profile to Standard User.

 

Hope this helps.

Hi Rov,

I have created two permission sets, namely "hiring manager" and "interviewer"

 

but i am not able to assign any permission set to Phil Katz.

 

I am performing following steps

 

Setup->manage user-> user->phil Katz->Permission set assignment

 

here I am not able to see any permission sets.

 

Please suggest

Setup->manage user-> user->phil Katz

Under the User Detail Section search for Profile . Click on the the Profile Name

 

click Edit .

Then Scroll down to Custom Objects .

 

Search for the object on which you are trying to change the owner.

 

Make sure that the check box for Read is True.

What is the User licence. Is it 'Salesforce'. Change it to salesforce and then try changing the profile to 'Standard Profile'

On the Profile Detail Page , at the top of the page is the Edit button.

 

I am assuming you are logged in as System Administartor.  

 

Let me know of you still have problem changing profile setting.

Hi all!
Just to followup 
Recruiter profile has R/C/E and view all permission on position object.
but the OWD on the position object is public read only due to standard employee(which is another profile and this profile should only have read only premission on position object).
Now there is a conflict between Recruiter profile permissions and OWD(OWD is more restrictive taking away the recruiters ability to edit any record).
The book says to create a sharing rule to add edit permission to recruiter profile.

Am confused with the way the sharing rule is defined....
Condition is that "Recruiters need read and update access on every position, candidate, job application, and review record that exists in the app."
but the book defines its sharing rule in the following way::

Object                   Rule label                            Owned by                             Should be shared with            Access level

Position                 Edit Positions         The role and subordinates                The role and subordinates          Read/Write
                                                                 of the Recruiting Manager                 of the Recruiting Manager
Am wondering how would recruiter have access to edit all the records with the above owned by condition. When I apply this rule and try to edit any position record is throws an error 
"You do not have the level of access necessary to perform the operation you requested. Please contact the owner of the record or your administrator if access is necessary. For more information, see Insufficient Privileges Errors. 

Click here to return to the previous page."

Am I missing something here or is it a mistake in the book. I think the owned by should be public group all internal users which works perfectly.

Thanks in advance!!
