    I need a solution to restrict users from creating saved searches. I am running 7.5.

    Just having read to the "Manage > Computers" menu item doesnt allow me to save searches, so what other permissions does your role have?

    I have multiple agencies logging in and I either need to scope it to the their view or completely block the option.

    I am able to scope the other areas of the Manage view but this one area is open to everyone and when one agency creates a save, even though the others can't see the contents because of the scoping they can still see the named saved searches.

    I have access set to where they only have one tab with the options that I have allowed. I have a ttached a screen shot. The default Manage view does not allow editing the different areas. Because they are scoped to resources they only see their own domains in this view (I am loggged in as administrator).

    This has been anissue since 7.1, and the current workaround is explained here:

    I have heard a rumour that we do intend to add functionality that will prevent users from creating them, but I do not know which version will have it.
