Activities do not have direct permissions that could be managed via permission profiles. Permissions to customers, projects and users limit the visibility of activities. If you are the activity owner or participant, you have the ability to edit the activity. There are a few exceptions related to the visibility of activities.
Seeing vs. Viewing activities
Severa's calendar is based on the idea that your colleagues can see your activities to know if you are free or busy. Because of this, users can see activities in the calendar. So, even if you don't have permissions to the activities, you can still see them in the calendar.
Read permission means that you have the right to open the activity and see the activity details, such as name, description, participants, etc. When activities are viewed from the calendar, some description fields are visible even if the user does not have permissions to the calendar entry. Tasks and To-do activities display the activity type and activity name. Out of office and personal activities show only the group name.
Activity owner vs. participants
Activity owner can always view, edit, or delete the activity. Participants can also view and edit the activity, but they cannot delete the activity. Participants can only remove the activity from themselves.
Activity group: Absences
When a user records an Absence, other users without permissions to Users cannot view the content of the activity. When a colleague views the absence in the calendar or Activities report, he sees only the text Absence, regardless of the actual name or content of the activity. Users with permission to Subordinates or All can view and edit absence activities.
Activity group: Personal
When a user records an activity using the activity type Personal, only he himself can see the content of the activity. If a colleague views the activity from the calendar or report, he sees the text Personal. If other participants are added to the activity, they can see the content of the activity.
Project membership
When a user is a project member, he can view all activities added to the project, even if he is not the activity owner/participant.
Permission to customers
When a user has permissions to customers, he can view all activities added to the customer.
