Allow All Users To Add List Items But Only Certain users To Edit Them (SharePoint 2013)

How do we allow all users to add items to a list, but only allow certain users to edit the list items? Site is SharePoint 2013. We have tried creating custom permissions. That does not seem to work.

I've setup a custom list on my SharePoint Foundation using a custom permission level to accomplish this.  I setup a custom permission level on the site called 'Add Only to Lists'  which allows adding an item to the list and setup the group with
the default read and the custom permission level and it works.  The users in the group get the add item but do not get edit item, not even items they created themselves.
Any users who should have full edit permissions can be setup under the normal edit/contribute/design permission level and work normal.
Below is the Role Definition pulled via PowerShell and Role Assignments on the list in question.  As well as a picture showing what it looks like to something assigned that role level.
Role Definition
Name : Add Only to list
Description : Can add items to a list but cannot edit or delete
Type : None
Hidden : False
Order : 2147483647
BasePermissions : ViewListItems, AddListItems, Open, ViewPages
List Role Assignments
Member : Home Visitors
RoleDefinitionBindings : {Read, Add Only to list}
Parent : IT Equipment Request
ParentSecurableObject : IT Equipment Request
The user can create a new item, but cannot edit items - not even items he created.

  • HT4597 Can I just choose which apps or photos to sync via iCloud since I don't want all of them in all my devices?  I have all photos & apps in my iMac but only sync manually some of them to my iPad and to my iPhone. Can I still do this with iCloud?

    I have 3 Apple devices - iMac, iPhone, and iPad.  I am planning to move to iCloud from MobileMe.  In iTunes, I just choose to sync whatever files I want my iPhone and iPad to have since they don't have sufficient disk space as my iMac. 
    Can I just choose which apps or photos to sync via iCloud since I don't want all of them in my iPhone and iPad?  I have all photos & apps in my iMac but only sync manually some of them to my iPad and to my iPhone. Can I still do this with iCloud?
    Calendars, emails, contacts, are fine since files are small.  What I'm afraid of are the apps and photos.
    Any reply will be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    With the exception of photo stream, iCloud doesn't sync your apps or photos between devices. You will continue to sync this content via iTunes in the same way as you do now.
    Photo stream allows you to sync your most recent photos between all devices, you have the option to use photostream or not.

  • How to restrict user rights so they can add list items but cannot edit them once saved?

    I appreciate if you can help me with this. My beloved company uses SP2010, and I got the task to solve this issue using it, though I am not a programmer (basic html is still ok).
    I need a simple annual leave list with the following capabilities:
    1. Group of users (~100 members) should be able to create list items in a list that contains annual leave data. Columns are: Name, Leave start date, Leave end date, Team leader, etc.
    2. Once they fill in the new item form, a workflow notifies the team leader to visit the item and set a column "approval status" to approved or rejected.
    3. Based on this column value, another workflow notifies the requestor about the decision.
    4. After approval, users should be able to see their items in the list, but they should not be able to edit it.
    Sounds so simple, but I have big issues with point 4. as Sharepoint does not differentiate create and edit rights to a list item. As a result, requestor can edit dates of the approved items.
    Any hints how to solve this? Can impersonation help with this? Or should I add a new permission level to the site?

    Hello
    We are going to do the following things to accomplish your task
    create a new security permission level that will allow submit only
    create your annual leave list
    assign everyone the submit only permission
    add a workflow to send the email and modify the item permissions
    Ok first things first, on the sharepoint server open a powershell window and type the following powershell:
    $spweb=Get-SPWeb -Identity "<site url>";
    $spRoleDefinition = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.SPRoleDefinition;
    $spRoleDefinition.Name = "Submit only";
    $spRoleDefinition.Description = "Can submit/add forms/files/items into library or list but cannot view/edit them.";
    $spRoleDefinition.BasePermissions = "AddListItems, ViewPages, ViewFormPages, Open";
    $spweb.RoleDefinitions.Add($spRoleDefinition);
    $spweb.Dispose();
    Now in your site you will have a new permission level called 'Submit Only'.
    Create your annual leave list and give all users read and submit only permissions.
    Now create a workflow against this list in sharepoint designer.
    Add a new step which should be an impersonization step
    1st action
    add permission: give the user and their manager (i am presuming you are capturing this information in your list so it will be recorded against the item) whatever control you wish, i.e. full control, contribute, etc.
    2nd action
    remove list permission: remove the group you initially gave read and submit only permission to and select the read and submit only permissions to remove from them, i.e. if you added the 'All Users' group, then when performing this action choose to remove
    the read and submit only permissions for the users 'All Users'.
    3rd Action
    Send an Email: Email Manager with notification.

  • SharePoint: Workflow to retrieve all users and Create list item record for each user

    Hi all,
    My share point site have two Lists as Holidays and MyCalender.
    Actually Holiday is simple non-Calender list with field as Holiday Date, Reason. MyCalender List Calender type list with Person Look-up column and user can see his own record. User of Manager group will declare holiday. This Holiday should get reflected
    on each user 's MyCalender List.[One listitem as holiday date and reason for each user] so everyone can view that record.
    I have requirement as Manager will create one Holiday record and then run single workflow so for all users present in SharePoint Site, one MyCalender List Item record should get created. Is it possible to do using Workflow?? Please help as I didn't get any
    solution for this.. Thanks in advance!

    You don't need one workflow per user when a filtered view can do this for you.  If the manager's list is the parent calendar, I'm assuming that he'll be at least using the person look-up column.
    Whether this feeds through the MyCalendar or stays where it is, you can use the [Me] parameter within the filter on a new view.  This will then return the assigned holiday filtering against the account that is logged in.

  • List data validation failed when creating a new list item but does not fail when editing an existing item

    Dear SharePoint Experts,
    Please help.
    Why does my simple formula work in Excel but not-work in SharePoint?
    Why does this formula...
    =IF([Request Type]="Review",(IF(ISBLANK([Request Date]),FALSE,TRUE)),TRUE)
    ...work in Excel but fail when I try to use it in SharePoint?
    The intent of this formula is the following...
    If the field "Request Type" has the value "Review" and the field "Request Data" is blank then show FALSE, otherwise show TRUE.
    SharePoint saves the formula, but when a list item is saved where the formula is implemented, (under List Settings, List Validation), SharePoint does not, say anything other than that the formula failed.
    Note that the "list data validation failed" error only happens when I am creating a new item-- the formula above works just fine when one is trying to Save on the edit form. 
    Can you help?
    Thanks.
    -- Mark Kamoski

    Dear Jason,
    I appreciate your efforts.
    However, it seems to me that this statement of yours is not correct...
    "If it meet the validation formula, then you can new or edit the item, otherwise, it will throw the 'list data validation failed' error, it is by design".
    I believe this is NOT the answer for the following reasons.
    When I create a new item and click Save, the validation error is "list data validation failed".
    When I edit an existing item and click Save, the validation error is "my custom error message" and this is, I believe, the way it needs to work each time.
    I think, at the core, the error my formula does not handle some condition of null or blank or other default value.
    I tried a forumla that casts the date back to a string, and then checked the string for a default value, but that did not work.
    I tried looking up the Correlation ID in the ULS when "list data validation failed" occurs, but that gave no useful information because, even though logging was set to Verbose, the stack trace in the error log was truncated and did not given any
    good details.
    However, it seems to me that SharePoint 2013 is not well-suited for complex validation rules, because...
    SharePoint 2013 list-level validation (NOT column-level validation) allows only 1 input for all the multi-field validation formulas in a given list-- so, if I had more than 1 multi-field validation rule to implement on a given list, it would need to be packed
    into that single-line-of-code forumla style, like Excel does. That is not practice to write, debug, or maintain.
    SharePoint 2013 list-level validation only allows 1 block of text for all such multi-field validation rules. So that will not work because I would have something like "Validation failed for one or more of the following reasons-- withdrawal cannot exceed
    available balance, date-of-birth cannot be after date-of-death,... etc". That will not work for me.
    The real and awesome solution would simply be enhancing SP 2013 so that column-level validation forumlas are able to reference other columns.
    But, for now, my workaround solution is to use JavaScript and jQuery, hook the onclick handler on the Save button, and that works good. The only problem, is that the jQuery validation rules run before any of the column-level rules created  with OOTB
    SP 2013. So, in some cases, there is an extra click for the enduser.
    Thanks,

  • Requestors end users will not acces a site directly and add list items

    Hi
    i created a  site for IT services  and this site includes some lists for various services
    http://Intranet.com/Units/IT services 
    main site is http://Intranet.com
    and also workflow are configured  for these lists for create new item
    and only 3 type of users will work on these lists
    1)Requestors (Create,View rights)
    2)Contributers (Contribute permissions)
    3)Approvers
    Scenario:
    -- Requestors    will create list items and approvers will Open this list item and  edit list item like
     approve and add a Contribute userid in AssignedTO field
    ---Contribute user also will recieve email and he also Open item and edit ans save this list
    so basically its backend  , data inserted by requestors will  save in lists
    so here i need all  Requestors  end users will not acces IT services site and add list item directly in list.
    is any other option availabe that i will provide a  diffrent front end page for Requestors at root level  site (which is Intranet.com )
    and they will add and view only their data, and  Contributers  also  view and edit all users data.
    adil

    Hi adilahmed,
    You can use two web parts to show the list items for different group.
    In the List view page, add another list view web part, set the first web part list view to filter Created By field with Me, second list with all list items.
    Then set the first web part with audience Requested group, and second web part with audience Contributers group.

  • Limited-access user permission lockdown mode and allowing anon users to view list items

    I'm working on setting up a public-facing SharePoint website that will need to support anonymous user access. I'm using the Enterprise Publishing Portal site collection template, so the Limited-access user permission lockdown mode feature is turned on.
    Everything is working great, except allowing users to view a list item. One of the key features I was hoping to leverage was the ability to display custom lists on a web page using a List View web part. Then they could click on an item and see the DispForm.aspx
    so the item's content was accessible, including any file attachments.
    A real-world example is adding an RSS viewer web part to the home page and allowing anon users to click on one of the events to see the details of it. Currently, in lockdown mode, the users gets an authentication prompt. 
    I toyed with the idea of turning the lockdown feature off. However, I'm uncertain of the full impact that would have on security. For example, I know it will allow anonymous users to see who created and modified an item, which we don't want exposed to the
    public (i.e. our employee names). Seems like opening a can of worms by disabling the lockdown mode... 
    Any ideas on how to tackle this would be greatly appreciated.

    So far, this is the most promising solution I've come across:

    Hi,
    The “Add new item” button will redirect users to add new item with the default Content Type of the current list.
    So a workaround can be like this: We can change the default Content Type of this list every time when users open this list view page, then the “Add new item” button will work
    as you expected.
    Here is a link with code demo about how to programmatically set a content type as default content type in a SharePoint 2013 List:
    http://www.ashokraja.me/tips/How-to-programmatically-set-a-content-type-as-default-content-type-in-a-SharePoint-2013-List
    We can put the code into a Visual Web Part and add it into your two views, then when users open a list view page, the code will be executed to change the default Content Type
    of the current list.
    To develop a custom web part, you can take a look at the links below with steps in detail for a start:
