[Proposal] Implement User Group Permission for Document in Frappe. about frappe HOT 5 OPEN

Our team will take the following approach

We will create User Group Permissions the same as User Permission. Whenever User Group Permission is added, all users of that group can see those documents if they have been given the appropriate role. User Group Permission will work with User Permission and also list view will be shown for that doctype in accordance with permissions of User Group Permission and User Permission

From a technical point of view, we have studied how User Permission works and we will implement the same API for getting permission for users using User Group Permission. Also, we will modify the permission.py file for user permission to return permission based on user permission and user group permission. We have studied how the list view is restricted for User Permission, Now, we will merge User permission from "User Group Permission" and "User Permission" doctype, to show only permitted records.

Feature Goal: Easily Assign Document Permissions to User Groups

Description:
The goal of this feature is to allow system administrators to conveniently grant document permissions to user groups using a new doctype called "User Group Permission." This functionality will mirror the existing user permission system but will apply to user groups instead of individual users.

New Doctype:

• User Group Permission

Fields:

• Fields similar to those in user permissions, allowing administrators to define read, write, create, and delete permissions for the selected user group on the chosen document(s).

Discovery:
Users can easily find the "User Group Permission" doctype by searching for it in the search bar within the Frappe application.

Links to Existing Doctypes:

• This feature will integrate with the existing "User Group" doctype, allowing administrators to select user groups from the available list when configuring permissions.
