Body: <p>I want to restrict a role to be able to create cases in CiviCase and be able to edit them. The "<em>access my cases and activities</em>" permission allows the role to create cases, but not to add new activities to the case they created. "<em>Access all cases and activities</em>" permits the role to edit not just their cases, but every case.</p>
  
  <p>In other words, I want the role to</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>be able to create new cases</li>
  <li>be able to edit the cases the user created</li>
  <li>not be able to edit other's cases</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Running CiviCRM 4.6.8 on Wordpress 4.3.1. Is there any way to achieve this at the moment?</p>
  
  <p>edit: Could it be that this behaviour is a bug, and the "<em>access my cases and activities</em>" permission is supposed to do exactly what I want?</p>
  
  <p>edit2: Updated to CiviCRM 4.6.9, and now it seems that the "<em>access my cases and activities</em>" permission allows the role to create and edit <strong>all</strong> cases and activities. I don't think this is the intended outcome though, as that would make "<em>Access all cases and activities</em>" useless.</p>
  
  <p>Could anyone confirm this?</p>

Comments.Text: The permission access my cases and activities is to access the cases you are a manager of. Or I think it is. Last year I have struggled a lot with cases and permissions and there seems no fine tuning possible on this topic. So it is not really a bug but it could be a wishable feature.

Comments.Text: That's how I understood it should be, and I would be fine with it. Problem is, on 4.6.8, this perm only wasn't enough to add activities to one's cases. With 4.6.9, it's the other extreme for me - able to edit all cases, manager or not.

Title: Permission(s) to edit cases created by the user
ThreadText: # Permission(s) to edit cases created by the user
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2015-10-04)
  
  I want to restrict a role to be able to create cases in CiviCase and be able to edit them. The "*access my cases and activities*" permission allows the role to create cases, but not to add new activities to the case they created. "*Access all cases and activities*" permits the role to edit not just their cases, but every case.
  
  In other words, I want the role to
  
  * be able to create new cases
  * be able to edit the cases the user created
  * not be able to edit other's cases

  edit2: Updated to CiviCRM 4.6.9, and now it seems that the "*access my cases and activities*" permission allows the role to create and edit **all** cases and activities. I don't think this is the intended outcome though, as that would make "*Access all cases and activities*" useless.
