Business value
We're extending the functionality of the business unit security model by expanding it to allow security roles from different business units to be assigned to a user. This allows a user to access data from different business units based on their security roles.
Feature details
By decoupling a user's business unit from their security role's business unit, security roles from different business units can be assigned to a user. This allows the user to access data from the respective business units without the need to create and join an owner team of the unit. In addition, a user who has security roles from different business units can set the owning business unit for the record when it's created or updated.
