object instance security

[Ch...@vosa.gov.uk]

Out of the box, does ofbiz allow for fine grained security of my custom 
entities (i.e. at the object instance level)?

Many thanks ...

Could you describe a bit more about what your intended use of this  
would be? Perhaps something like a business story?

There are some entity-level permission resources in the security and  
entity engine parts of OFBiz, but they aren't used much as we  
generally go with data driven logic layer permissions more than data  
driven data layer permissions.
