Is there a way to grant permission on certain custom forms to certain roles only?

I think you can restrict a role to only 1 form, but you can't restrict a role from selecting a form.

Alternatively you could use workflow/script to lock the form drop down to prevent selection of forms

but then you need some other way to initiate form changes

To clarify on my first point - if you haven't restricted a role to just 1 form, then you can't say "this role can use these 3 out of the 4 forms available"

You can use field level security on custom fields though (i.e. this role can only view - this role can't, this role can edit) etc

Ive seen people look at the user and set the form based on role/user via suitescript. There's nothing natively built in for this that I am aware of.

Yeah I’m thinking we do it via WF or UE
