How can i restrict access to specific register accounts for some users?

Here are a few methods discussed in the conversations: 1. Workflow based on GL account: You can create a workflow that restricts the view of transactions based on the GL account and user role. If a user tries to access a restricted account, the workflow can throw a restriction violation. This method is not the most elegant, but it works. 2. Scripting: You can use SuiteScript to create a more sophisticated access control mechanism. For example, you can add a multiselect field to the accounts and then use a client-side script to check if the user has permission to access the selected account. If the user tries to post to an account they don't have access to, the script can display a warning message. 3. Custom transactions: If the sensitive data is related to payroll, you can consider using a payroll journal or a custom transaction. You can then control access to these transactions via roles. 4. Department restrictions: You can restrict access to accounts based on the user's department. However, this method is not very flexible as it is a 1:1 restriction. That is, you can't say "departments A, B, and C can post to this account", you can only say "only department A can post to this account". 5. Ledger permissions: You can use the "ledger" permissions on the list subtab to restrict access to certain accounts. This method can be used to prevent users from seeing activity that has been posted in those accounts. Remember, these methods can only restrict access to a certain extent. Users may still be able to view restricted data via search or analytics. Therefore, it's important to regularly review and update your access control mechanisms to ensure they are effective.

Im referring to the actual account record with all the transactions. Is there a way to restrict one account via workflow?
