  • Details
    • Before the change:
      • After the permission settings of all records were ready to be applied, they were applied simultaneously.
      • The time it took for the permission settings to be ready for all records depended on the number of records in the App.
    • After the change:
      • Permission settings are applied to records sequentially.
      • Until permission settings are applied to all records, there will be a period where records in the App will have a mixture of permission settings. During this period, a message will appear on the App Settings page stating, "Applying permission setting changes to each record.".
      • The time it takes for the permission settings to be applied to all records depends on the number of records in the App.
