Permissions | Contacts - Private or limited access to certain contacts
It would be great if it is possible to make a contact private in order to limited the users who has access to a contact, especially when the contact contains private information that should not be accessible by all users.

Make it possible to give a user access to a specific group in contacts? They should only have access to add or amend contacts for a specific group. EG: a sales rep adding contacts to a sales group and having access only to that group.

I agree, certain financial information contained within some contacts should not be viewable by other members of staff that are not privy to this information.

The money out over the last 12 months graph on the contact page is visible to users with limited permissions. This needs to be fixed ASAP. It should at least be something we can turn off. Or give us the ability to mark certain contacts as confidential.

Hi guys, this is a serious issue that needs to be resolved asap! We have been using Xero for about 3 years now and was shocked to find out today that a limited rights user still has access to a Salaried employee contact and able to view their monthly Salary being paid via the Money in and out over last 12 months graphs under the contact.

Although certain staff have "Invoice Only ( Purchases ) " permissions, they can still see sensitive contacts such as Company Directors and other staff in the contacts list and can then see the " money in and out " bar graph which when you hover over it shows the amounts paid. There needs to be a way to hide these details, Its just not secure as it is.

My organisation would greatly benefit from being able to have certain contacts private from certain users. We employ contractors for some senior roles and would like to use this feature for this purpose if it becomes available in the future. Without it I am left in an awkward situation where accounts payable staff can view confidential information.

Security risk for employees working on a company to view each other’s salary payments as well as directors payments as all is reflecting under activities tab in contacts. Cannot block the user not to have access to contacts as they must process invoices etc.
