Permissions set to Add, Edit, View but not delete…but users can't edit

Question

I set permissions levels for a group to Add, Edit, View but Not Delete. The only thing is they can't edit it now. The users click on Edit in a SharePoint list item and they get access denied page. Not sure what happened.

Answer 1

I have the same permission level. I named it ContributeNonDelete. And it works as expected.
