Restricting Accounts, Departments, Classes (and Locations)
Let's say you want certain accounts to be available for posting only with particular departments. Out of the box, I don't think you can do this: an account is either available for all departments or for a single department (or class, location).
First, am I missing a basic config setting? Is this really the case? What we're after is basically a multi-select instead of a single select on the Department/Class/Location Restriction fields on the Account record.
Next, how about implementing restrictions among Departments and Classes (and Locations), e.g. Class "Textiles" is only active for Departments, X, Y, and Z?
