Disable record's creation

Question

Hello everybody !

I have a really urgent problem to solve :

How can i disable the "creation" of new records (in standdard modules like Accounts, but in custom too) for few users?

I was thinking about roles, but there is nothing on the role management.
I would like to disable the creation of new Accounts for the role "lambda user".

of course, we have to take care of disable "duplication" too.

By disable, i mean, disallowed access to the button "create" and "duplicate" and to disallowed the action.

Do you know how to disable the action of creation/duplication and how to hide the "create"/"duplicate" buttons ?

Thanks a lot !

ps : Im on Sugar 7.5.1 Pro

PROBLEM SOLVED ! After a big while, and with the huge Help, Time, Knowledges and Patience of Alan Beam , Shijin Krishna and Matthew Marum , I got it running ! So, because they were so kind to me, and because i know someone will someday face this situation, i put here the code wrote ! How to write the custom API to retrieve current user roles : ( be carefull , your file must have the same name as you class) in /custom/clients/base/api/getCurrentUserRoleApi.php array( 'reqType' => 'GET', 'path' => array('userRole'), 'pathVars' => array(), 'method' => 'getCurrentUserRole', 'shortHelp' => 'Custom Api to get the current user role', 'longHelp' => '', ), ); } public function getCurrentUserRole($api,$args){ global $current_user;global $db; $query = "SELECT acl_roles.id ". "FROM acl_roles ". "INNER JOIN acl_roles_users ON acl_roles_users.user_id = '".$current_user->id."' ". "AND acl_roles_users.role_id = acl_roles.id AND acl_roles_users.deleted = '0' ". "WHERE acl_roles.deleted = '0' "; $result = $db->query($query); $user_roles=array(); while($row = $db->fetchByAssoc($result) ){ $user_roles[] = $row['id']; } return $user_roles; } } Then, add your js, which will call the api and act in return : ( be careful , every app should be in minus letters, but the last one, SUGAR.App has to be given a capital !) ( be careful , must be replaced by your chosen role id) in /custom/javascript/acl_hide_create.js (function(app) { app.events.on("app:sync:complete", function(){ /*call to the custom api to disallow create for Standard Users.*/ app.api.call('GET', app.api.buildURL('userRole'), null, { success: function(userRoleArray) { if (_.indexOf(userRoleArray,"") > -1) { console.log(userRoleArray); var acls = app.user.getAcls(); acls.Accounts.create = 'no'; app.user.set("acls", acls); }else{ console.log("not inarray"); } }, }); }); })(SUGAR.App); Finally, to add your JS t the JSGroupings, (this one adds your js to the sugr7.min.js) ( be careful : your file.php has to be named the same as your precedent js file) under /custom/Extension/application/Ext/JSGroupings/acl_hide_create.php $groupings) { foreach ($groupings as $file => $target) { if ($target == 'include/javascript/sugar_grp7.min.js') { $js_groupings[$key]['custom/javascript/acl_hide_create.js'] = 'include/javascript/sugar_grp7.min.js'; } break; } } After that, do a QRR (quick repair and rebuild) and a repair the Grouping JS (go to admin > repair and you'll see the first item and the 13th) So, this is brought to you by the unification of the forces and knowledges of all 3 great men : Alan Beam , Shijin Krishna and Matthew Marum ! Many big thanks to them !!
