Custom Entity Field > Access > Default Access Level
I created a new entity field for vendor records. I selected a role with Access Level = Edit under the Access subtab of the field definition record. Default Access Level (DAL) = View. This allows only the selected role to edit the field, while other roles can view it.

The issue comes with a workflow. I'm trying to set a value for this field. After the WF runs, the field value is blank even though the log shows it executed. If I change the DAL from View to Edit, the field does show a value after the WF runs again. However, this defeats the purpose of having only one role being able to edit the field. Has anyone else encountered this?
