This article describe in example how to simply show a button (or anything else, button code of course can be easily changed) on page only for some specific roles.

This example draws a button "Convert to incident" only for roles Administrator, Level 1 Analyst and Service Desk Manager. You can place it anywhere into detail_cr.htmpl page.
var role_list_txt = <PDM_FMT ESC_STYLE=C PAD=NO>"$SESSION.ROLE_LIST"</PDM_FMT>; var role_list = role_list_txt.split( "@,@" ); if (role_list.length > 2) { var roleName = ''; for (var i=1; i<role_list.length; i+=2) { if (role_list[i] == $SESSION.ROLE_ID) { roleName = role_list[i-1]; break; } } if (roleName == 'Administrator' || roleName == 'Level 1 Analyst' || roleName == 'Service Desk Manager') { var popupURL = '$cgi?SID=$SESSION.SID+FID=' + fid_generator() + '+FACTORY=cr+PERSID=$args.persistent_id+OP=UPDATE+ACTIVITY_LOG_TYPE=FLD+HTMPL=act_chgtype_cr.htmpl'; <PDM_MACRO NAME=button CAPTION="Convert to incident" ID=convert_to_incident FUNC="popupActivityWithURL(popupURL, 'crtype')" WIDTH=180 NEWROW=yes ENDROW=yes> } }
This example works only on SD R12!!!
