restriction for user access by validation

HI Folks,

I have a scenario i.e, Whoever is created the record but that record users manager & system admin only edit the record based on Grade field. For this i implemented a validation, but its not working properly. So please suggest me.

AND(
OR(ISCHANGED( Grade_1__c ), ISCHANGED( Grade_2__c ), ISCHANGED( Grade_3__c )),
OR( $User.Id=$User.ManagerId )
)

Highly appreciated!!

Hi Swamy,

You can use below updated formula:
IF(OR(ISCHANGED( QnxSPM__End_Date__c ) ,ISCHANGED( QnxSPM__Start_Date__c )),IF(AND($User.Id <> Owner.ManagerId, $User.ProfileId <> 'SystemAdministratorProfileID'), true,false),false)
Replace SystemAdministratorProfileID with Appropriate ID of System Admin Profile.

If this solves your problem, kindly mark it as the best answer.

Thanks,
Vatsal

I was able to compare with system admin profile but am not able to compare with record owner managerid.

Only Record " Owners Manager " and " System admin " people can edit the record.

AND(
OR( ISCHANGED( QnxSPM__End_Date__c ) ,
    ISCHANGED( QnxSPM__Start_Date__c )          
),
OR( $User.Id <> $User.ManagerId ,
    $Profile.Name  <> "System Administrator"
)
)

Can anyone suggest me..

Getting record owner's manager id in validation rule is not possible, I guess.

You may need to go for apex validation error.

Its possible by using " $User.ManagerId " . But how can i compare with record owner Manager.
Do you have any idea on this.

Hi Swamy,

You can use below formula:
IF(ISCHANGED(TextField__c),IF(AND($User.Id <> Owner.ManagerId, $User.ProfileId <> 'SystemAdministratorProfileID'), true,false),false)
Replace SystemAdministratorProfileID with Appropriate ID of System Admin Profile.
