    OR
  • 'Read Only' or 'Standard' level permissions with the 'Create or Edit Action Plan' granular permission.
• Additional Information

  • 'Blocking Functionality' can only be configured when an action plan is being created or edited. See Edit an Action Plan.
  • Additional assignees added while an action plan is being performed are considered optional and can be removed while performing or editing an action plan.
