Privilege Description Special inquiry or Search participants Allows you to view the resulting cases according to the View Cases setting. Only one option shows; Special inquiry or Search participants.
View cases Allows you to view and search for cases to which you assigned or for all cases in the tier. You can set View cases to a higher level than Edit cases. For example, you can give users the ability to view and search all cases in a tier while limiting their editing privilege to assigned cases only.
