Update subsets for the lists with Selective access

Hello, could you please help with following situation.

I have the flat list of positions for which Selective access is set (according to the access of the user, so that HRBP of the Facility 1 has access only to applicable positions). All the major calculations are made on this list of positions ir order to save space (without unnecessary levels in hierarchy).

Now I need to create the action which will update the subsets for this list based on the user's choice (tick position to vacant or not, tick position to be included in the certain list of positions for cost recharges, etc.) But the users without access to ALL elements (and without WS admin access) in this list got the error "You are not authourised to update this entity". Even if they have access to certain elements according to their selective access rights. Why is this happening? Could this be fixed?

Can you ensure that you have setup roles to list access for positions list? Send the screenshot of the import action saved view..

Hi,

This is because the user will not be able to WRITE to any position list item that he/she has no access to due to the selective access settings. If the element is the child of position, having access to only a particular position will not allow the user to WRITE to this position. In this case, you will either need to ask an admin with WSA right, or model role with access to ALL elements to run this subset update action for the user, or make it part of an integration and make it a recurring job.

Can you share screenshots of your selective access settings, saved view, and list hierarchical relationship if you need further help.
