After you have added a new planner user to your system, you find that they can see all of the events in your system, and not just the ones that you gave specific access to. The reason for this is likely because of their Default Access level. 

Under the Assigned Events heading, the first option you have when configuring a PCP account is to assign its default access level, which is the level of access that the planner will have to any event in your system by default. Then, when setting up specific event permissions, you're telling the system what the event permission should be and how it should override what the default is set to!

In the example below, this user's access level to IEM Vancouver 2025 is set to Read Only. However, their Default Access is set to Full Access. So, right now the planner can see every event in the system, and when it comes to the IEM event specifically, the planner will see it but will be unable to make edits (creating new reservations, submitting change requests).

If we didn't want this, and instead wanted the planner to only see the IEM event and nothing else, all we'd have to do is change the Default Access level to No Access.
