File owner drop down menu in client private area (uncorrect assignment)

    Hello,

    in Create File procedure, the Owner step drop down menu includes all the possibile owners such as the Admin, the client #1, client #2 etc.

    Corsidering that the upload file procedure is a single private act for a client who wants to send a document to the admin, it should be set by default with the single account name, without any choice.

    If I am a a registered client I should not be able to upload a file as an Admin or others.

    Pleases, how can I set the right configuration to solve this problem?

    Thank you. Regards

    Hi,

    You can restrict those choices with the « owner restrictions add-on »

    Oh, and if the owner is always the same admin account, you can also do this with the free base addon:

    • remove the permission to choose an owner for the users having the « client » role (settings -> permissions)
    • set the default owner to the admin account (settings -> private files).

    That does not require any other add-on.
