Standard Permission Sets

To see which permission sets are standard, add Is Custom to your list view. The Is Custom box isn’t checked for standard permission set. Permission sets you created or cloned are indicated with a checkmark.

Salesforce can update the permissions and settings in a standard permission set to account for new features or functionality. When this occurs, the Last Modified By field displays "salesforce.com, inc." and the timestamp for the update.

You can see all permissions enabled for a standard permission set on its summary page. Select a permission set, and then click View Summary.

Standard permission sets don’t count against your org’s permission set limits. You can clone a standard permission set as many times as you want, but you can’t edit it. Clones do count against your org’s permission set limits.

Example Let’s say you purchased 10 Sales Console User permission set licenses. You can do any of the following.

• Assign all 10 users to the Salesforce Console User permission set.
• Assign some of the users to the Salesforce Console User permission set, and assign the remainder to a clone of Salesforce Console User.
• Clone the Salesforce Console User permission set and assign different users to each clone, based on your org’s structure.
