  • This is not simple to do with the CRM security model. You can achieve it by putting senior management users in a different business unit, granting non-senior management users only business unit level permissions on the activity entity (this includes permissions on emails), then using logic to share to users (or a team containing all users) all activities except the emails to the senior management group. However, there are some limitations to this approach:

    • It requires sharing of a lot of activity records. Each record shared adds an entry to the PrincipalObjectAccess table, and too many records in this table can cause performance problems
    • The logic to determine when not to share records can be complicated, especially as it will probably have to check the activity parties on an email
    • You may have to adjust your business unit structure to make this work

    The simpler option is not to track these emails into CRM in the first place
