2489243 - Data Inconsistency Caused by Lack of Permissions for Associated Fields

Symptom

It is currently possible to create Data Inconsistencies in EC Job Information data (and anywhere else where Object Associations can be configured).

The scenario is that if the end user has permission to (for example) the Parent object field (which is required) but not the Child object field (which is also required),

meaning they do not see the Child object field, they can make a change to the Parent field and save the data with an inconsistent value in the Child object field, that is not associated with the newly selected parent value.

for example, we have a lot of fields linked between each others via assocations - in case the user is not authorized for one of 2 fields that are linked via associations

The user is able to change the field which they have permission for, which result in a data inconsistency.
