I was looking around in 7.81.1334.10 on our test machine (we're still on 7.80 in production) and noticed that the option to limit who can see SSNs is gone. It used to be wedged between the Religion and Solicitor Performance Summary options but now it's missing. Did they move it somewhere else?
It appears that the old settings are still in affect as all but one of our security groups could actually view SSNs and that's still the case in 7.81 on the test box. I just can't see where I would set the option if I needed to create a new group with the same limitations.
Has anyone else noticed this in 7.81?

Looks like it was moved to "Personal Info", though I would like to be able to define what "personal info" is... I poked around, but I couldn't find where to define it at... smart thing would have been to set a "flag" on fields that determines whether its affected or not...

Personally I like the old security (7.80) better. I poked around too and it looks like if I check "Personal Information Data Entry" then I can view SSNs (and thus unchecking it will hide the SSNs) but I can ALSO view credit card info. I was surprised by that because I thought that's what the "Credit Card Report" option would be used for.
So it looks like there's no way to allow SSNs and also deny c.c. info on the same security group - or if there is it will take a lot of trickery on my part - and trickery takes time. It's just so much easier on 7.80.
