The Field Permission Matrix allows a System Administrator to define a set of rules governing view and edit permissions. These rules are based on a combination of user [[role]] and record [[status]]. This set of rules, known as the Permission Matrix, can then be applied to multiple fields.
The Field Permission Matrix exists for two reasons:
* in order to make it easier for System Administrators to apply [[Visibility Condition|visibility conditionconditions]]s to a set of fields; and
* to increase server efficiency (rather than validating potentially hundreds of visibility conditions, when the Field Permission Matrix is used, validation takes place once and is then applied to all affected fields).
