Release Note
Staff Data Field Visibility: Private Read-Only
Release date:
Existing categories continue to work as before. The existing Private option has been renamed Private - Editable.
Visibility Options
Found under Control Panel → Staff Data Fields.
• Public Data: everyone who can access a practitioner's record can view and edit the field. May be visible to clients, so use it for non-sensitive details only.
• Private - Editable: the practitioner and superusers can view and edit the field.
• Private - Read-only: the practitioner can view the field, but only a superuser can edit it.
• Superuser Private Data: only superusers can view and edit the field. It's hidden from the practitioner.
Other Changes
• A help icon next to the Visibility picker explains the selected option.
• Visibility can now be changed on a saved category, so you can switch to Private - Read-only without recreating it.
• Read-only fields show a lock icon to the practitioner on the Staff Data page. Field history stays accessible.
• If a save is rejected, the message now explains why.
