Item card modification permissions

How do I limit who can modify the item card?
For example, I want to allow engineers to create the item, but allow manufacturing to modify the bin fill checkbox on the card, nothing else.

Easiest way is to create two Item card pages. One totally editable (or the current one) and a new one where all fields but Bin are non-editable.
Give the engineers access to the first one, and the other people to the second one.

If you want to spend some time and avoid consume an object, you can always make a few boolean variables to control the access to the fields.

You would have to check the permitions of the user to see if you will enable/disable the access to the fields and in this case, change between true/false the boolean fields.

Something like:

Field X, properties Enable, instead of true/false would be your boolean variable.

Easy Security (by Mergetool) also has an add-on for this. Not only do they do it for the item card, but it can be used across other areas.

We do permission sets for every single department and have them set for each one.. not hard just time consuming.

I don't have any personal experience with Easy Security, but our implementation teams seem to like it and use it on many projects.
