Private records
In most applications you can mark individual entries as private. All private entries
remain visible and accessible until you select the Security setting to hide or mask
them. When you hide entries, they do not appear anywhere in the application. When
you mask entries, a visual placeholder appears in place of the entry. If you define a
password, you must enter it to display private entries. If you do not define a password,
you (or anyone else) can reveal private entries without a password.
1. Display the entry that you want to mark private.
2. Choose Details.
3. Check the Private box.
4. Choose OK.
Hiding or masking all private records
1. Make sure the records you want to mask are marked private.
2. Press Applications Launcher .
3. Choose the pick list in the upper-right corner, and then select All.
4. Choose the Security icon.
5. Choose the Current Privacy pick list, and then select either Hide Records or Mask
Records.
As a security measure,
masked Contacts records
are temporarily hidden
when you perform a
search. So you will not see
a placeholder for masked
entries when viewing the
results of a Lookup or Find
request.
