Take the 2-minute tour ×  Is there anyway to set permissions on
an item depending on a column value? I was think about creating
a feature to do this but do I have to?  share|improve this

No, you will need a custom solution for this! For example an
asynchronous list item event handler. But be careful with item
level permissions - you should not exceed 1000 unqiue security
boundaries in a single list. See Software boundaries and limits
for SharePoint 2010.  share|improve this answer If you'll have
many unique permissions, you'll want to either use folders or
push the items to uniquely secured lists. –  PirateEric Oct 8

within a SharePoint Designer workflow to modify permissions. You
don't need to custom code, unless you have more requirements.

don't see impersonation step. Please help. –  Kyle Johnson Oct 9
