Making records private

In all PIM applications, except Expense, you can make individual
records private. Private records remain visible and accessible, however,
until you select the Security setting to hide or mask all private records.
See the section that begins on page 43 for details.

Hiding and masking private records

You can hide records that you mark as private. When you hide records,
they do not appear anywhere in the application. When you mask records,
a visual placeholder appears where the record would normally appear. If
you define a password, you must enter it to display private records.

Note:

As a security measure, masked Contacts records are temporarily

hidden when you search for records. So you will not see a placeholder for
these records when viewing the results of a Lookup or Find request.
