Hidden Items/Items not in a user's View Group still search-able
Hey All,
Scoured the help and forums, and can't find an answer. I am setting view groups for certain inventory folders, and in the main inventory tree, all is working as intended. However, from my testing it seems in the main search function, items not in that user's view group, as well as items marked hidden, will still appear. Is there a fix for this? Seems to defeat the purpose of restricting views of certain folders and items if they can just access them via the search.
Thanks

Hi Chris,
To ensure hidden items are properly configured, let's review a few key areas. It appears you've adjusted the "Hide" setting to "Yes" for individual inventory items. Additionally, you're already selecting specific View Groups in the Inventory Tree Configuration. The third area to verify is within Security Groups (accessible via Main Menu > System Settings > Security Groups). Here, you'll want to ensure that under the Inventory Module, the setting "Can Browse and Search Hidden Items" is set to Deny. If all these settings are configured correctly and you still encounter issues, I recommend reaching out to support@flexrentalsolutions.com for further assistance.

Hey Chris, assuming you're correct, I would submit this as a support ticket (support@flexrentalsolutions.com). I don't think there's any settings to adjust that. I would agree that it shouldn't be accessible via search, but that will be up to Flex whether they consider it a bug or not. Flex would also be able to log in and make sure your permission settings are correct.
