#System Administrator Profile0 debatiendo

I am looking to see if there is any published information on the future of Standard Profiles with the EOL of Permissions on Profiles date removed?

 

I see there was a comment in this group back in March 2023 that Salesforce is planning to replace Standard System Administrator Profile with a standard System Administrator Permission Set Group, link here: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/trailblazer-community/feed/0D54S00000JgZizSAF.

 

Has there been any update on this? And is there any update on other standard profiles if they will be replaced with any standard Permission Set Groups as well?

    @Justin Dux @Evan Drantch AS OF NOVEMBER 2024, the previous plan to retire Profiles has been reversed. Here is an official statement:

     

    "Hey, hashtag#AwesomeAdmins, I wanted to update you on the End of Life of Permissions on Profiles. We are no longer going to enforce the Spring '26 end-of-life date. However, I still wholeheartedly recommend that you operate with a permission set led security model. In addition, all of our investments are very permission set and permission set group focused from a permissions standpoint...."

     

    And here:

     

    "If you’ve been keeping up with new features for admins each release, you may have noticed we’ve been sharing updates on the future of user management in Salesforce. For the past 3 years, we’ve consistently told our customers and partners that permission sets are the future of user management.

     

    It’s finally here! We’re announcing the end of life (EOL) of permissions on profiles that will be the Spring ’26 release. Over the next few weeks, you will see the official announcement come out.

     

    Before we dive into what’s new with Spring ‘23, here’s a quick reminder of what will remain in a profile and what will eventually be available only in permission sets. I’ve also included some FAQs to help you understand where we’re going.

     

    Profiles will still exist; however, permissions on profiles will EOL and permissions will be available only on permission sets."

Dear Community,

We're looking for advice on how to configure a Salesforce Admin user with specific restrictions. Our goal is to create a Salesforce Admin user who possesses all the generic Salesforce Admin setup permissions but is restricted from adding or removing Salesforce users.

Any insights or recommendations on the best way to set up such a permission set would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your assistance!

    You might just need to remove create permission from User object. Maybe also edit on isActive field.

How will System Administrator full access be handled with the profile to permission set transition? Will we now have to manually build that full access for every org? It can't be built in Permission Sets or PSGs because there will be users with the Manage Permission Sets permission who can tamper with it. Won't it have to remain in Profiles to preserve the security of the 5 "Permissions of Death"? 

Also, Packages usually have 3 options: System Admin, All Users, Specific Profiles. How will that new full access be added to only the System Administrators? #Best Practices #System Administrator Profile

I’m the only one using Salesforce (Real Estate agent). Is it normal to have my admin account and run my regular business? Or, should I add myself as a user and work under that profile? I’m new to Salesforce and working through the training but it’s overwhelming at times trying to just get the ball rolling on implementation. It feels like I’m building everything from scratch rather than an out of the box CRM. Any insights/help would be appreciated

Under the current setup the standard sys admin profile is automatically enabled for all object, field,  system, and other permissions. When we shift over to using permission sets, how can we create a sys admin permission  set that will be automatically updated? Granting VAD and MAD, will not update other permissions such as system permissions, installed package access, etc. Will this have to be maintained manually? Will Salesforce supply standard permission sets that replace this functionality? Is there any other way to achieve this?

    Sorry for the delay. I was actually planning with my teams last week!  We plan on delivering standard system admin permission set groups to replace the standard system admin profile.  We are probably two releases away from delivering this, but I will publish my updated roadmap after I finish all of the planning activities with my teams.

In completing a Beginner Admin Project I adjusted my Admin settings somehow and now I can not set up a user in the Set Up Case Escalation And Entitlements. It won't let me input any information after I get into Service Setup. Any and all help will be appreciated.

Hi All,

 

I cloned the system administrator profile and added a couple of users called 'guest user1' & 'guest user2'. guest user2  shouldn't access few standard and custom objects. How  I can achieve this?

    I fixed the issue. As I copied the Administrative profile, somehow it was getting access to all objects. Now I cloned the standard profile and gave minimum access and followed the same steps did earlier. now I am able to hide standard object ex. Accounts. Thanks all for your inputs.

I recently implemented Two-factor Authentication via a Permission Set for users with the System Administrator profile.  My hope was to start with the PS and then apply it at the Profile level to avoid the maintenance.  Our organization refreshed our Full Sandbox and we realized that the System Administrators with the Two-factor PS were not able to login to the refreshed sandbox.  Luckily, I had an account without the PS that I used to login and remove the PS from the System Admins.   I’d still like to apply Two-factor via Profile, but am not sure how to address refreshes going forward.  My goal is for all System Admin UI logins to require Two-factor, so creating a sperate profile without it is not a good fit.

 

Any thoughts?

 

Thanks,

 

Stephen

    @Stephen Jones two-factor via email is not a standard configuration in Salesforce, but rather is used for Identity Confirmation (login from new browser), but that shouldn't happen on the first login. So, you may have a custom Login Flow enabled. Let me know what you find out. Thx.
