Hi experts!

I would like to control  "Read or Write" permission of specific column on a Page? 
For example, a Manager can Write "Bank Account No", below, but a Group Leader can not do that.
If it's possible, how can I do that?  Can I check some kind of roll table?

Look forward to hiring from you.
Best,
Nobuhara

    Out of the box permissions can't be used to restrict read or write on specific fields. As Yun Zhu mentioned it would have to be done using customization. However, one option is to control this using a common profile users are using. More info here - Mark fields as read-only when customizing UI | Microsoft Learn

    Since the standard does not have field-level permission control, there is currently no solution except customization.
    If you don't need a complete solution, you can consider using the following function to hide the fields according to their roles.

    Hi,
     
    In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, you can control "Read" or "Write" permissions for a specific column (field) on a Page using:
     * Field-Level Editable Permissions in AL Code
     * Permissions & Security Filters (For Read-Only Restrictions)
     * Record-Level Security via Event Subscribers
    pageextension 50100 "ExployeeCardExt" extends "Employee Card"
    {
        layout
        {
            Modify("Bank Account No.")
            {
                    Editable = CanEditItemBankaccount(); // Dynamic control
            }
        }
        local procedure CanEditItemBankaccount(): Boolean
        var
            UserSetup: Record "User Setup";
        begin
            // Check if the user has permission
            if UserSetup.Get(UserId) then
                exit(UserSetup."Can Edit Item Reference No.")
            else
                exit(false); // Default to read-only
        end;
    }
    Steps to Restrict Read Access using Permissions Set

    Go to Business Central Admin Center → Permissions (Page 9802).
    Find or create a Custom Permission Set.
    Locate the Table where the field exists (e.g., Employee).
    Apply a Security Filter:
    Use Security Filters to allow only certain values based on user roles.
