Question

I have a structure in a list that looks like below:

List 1

  • SubList in a Folder 1.a
  • SubList in a Folder 1.b
  • SubList in a Folder 1.c
  • ...
  • SubList in a Folder 1.z

I set unique permissions (using groups) for List 1 and every SubList in a Folder 1.a, 1.b etc as they don't need to see the other content. Every list and sublist has unique permissions.

I need a way to cut the edit access to all the users at once (for all Folders/sublists) when is the cut-off date, so they don't edit the lists while we're closing the books.

I realized that even if i remove their access from List 1, because they have individual unique permissions to edit the sublist, they can still edit the sublists.

Is there a way to lock edit for all sublists in folders for all users at once?

Many thanks!

No correct solution

OTHER TIPS

You can set the permissions of all users to all sublists as read permission.

You could use PowerShell. Here's a reference for you.
