<p>Nope. It isn't possible to set permissions for individual entries (based on a field value, entry type or any other criteria).</p>

<p>In the CP, is it possible to assign a user group to selected entries within a section.</p>

<p>For example, say I have a section called <code>Events</code>. Within that section I have a fieldType called <code>company</code>.</p>

<p>Can I create a user group called <code>Company 1</code> where users within it can only see/edit entries within <code>Events</code> section that has its <code>company</code> field selected as <code>Company 1</code>?</p>

<p>Trying to ascertain if its possible to allow users from multiple companies access to the CP, but heavily restrict what they can access.</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

In the CP, is it possible to assign a user group to selected entries within a section.

For example, say I have a section called `Events`. Within that section I have a fieldType called `company`.

Can I create a user group called `Company 1` where users within it can only see/edit entries within `Events` section that has its `company` field selected as `Company 1`?

Trying to ascertain if its possible to allow users from multiple companies access to the CP, but heavily restrict what they can access.

Thanks!

Depending on what else you need, you *might* be able to do this with locales.

You would have a `company1` locale, and a user group that had access to only that locale.
