Access control for customer Business Objects (BO) development with the SAP Hybris Cloud Studio is also a topics which often is asked.

There is already a great blog on this topic already available, hence I simply refer to the following content which provides a great overview. Although this blog is referring to functional capabilities of SAP Business byDesign it can also be considered for customer development within SAP Cloud for Customer:

Actually two different ways are supported to enable access control for custom developed BOs

1. Associate the custom BO with a standard BO where the standard BO access context is inherited to the customer BO

2. Specify an own custom BO access context. Currently the following access contexts are supported in C4C

• 1010      Employee
• 1015      EmployeeOrTerritory
  with 1611 I expect in addition the sales organization also being supported.
