Assiging Object Access to a Custom Profile

Hello,

I was going throught Trailhead tutorial for Sales Force and under Data Security I found this challenge to,

"Create a 'Account Reviewer' profile which should only have read access to the Account object (and no access to any other object in the Org)."

When I am creating Account Reviewer profile, it is by default linked to all the objects. I am not able to see any Edit button while going inside Account Reviewer profile and select only Account object.

Can anyone please help me !!!

Rohit, 

You have "Enhanced Profile User Interface" enabled in your org.

So you have to follow this step on all objects to modify object settings.

For account, 

Click on object settings - Account - Edit - Check "Read" and Uncheck All other permissions(Create,Edit,Delete,View All, Modify All)

But there is another way to modify the all settings in one place. 

You have to change the profile interface back to old style.

Setup - Customize - User Interface - Uncheck "Enable Enhanced Profile User Interface".

Now you will have the option to edit the profile directly in profiles list view.
