I guess this is more of a design question here:
I have users VU, U1, U2, and M1.
VU is Virtual User.
U1 and U2 have access to the workitems of VU.
How could I achieve the following:
User M1 wants to look in the workitems of U1 and U2.
I dont want to achieve this by giving access to the workitems of U1 and U2. Because later if I add one more user U3 (who will have access to the workitems of VU), again I need to change the definition of authorizations of M1 to give him access to the workitems of U3.
Basically, all I want to do is give M1 access to all the workitems of U1, U2 and users whom I add them later.
Is there any other way to achieve the above scenario?
Thanks

The way I normall deal with these scenarios makes it easy... BUT you need to be sure that none of these "worker bee" users have access to a standard client (fat or thin).
Since for most situations you need to write a custom client, I find the easiest way to do this is to Give everyone access to workitems of all, then you simply control what the user sees with a filter when you do your query. This may or may not work for you.
I hope it does  because the alternative is what I believe you are trying to avoid. It can be a logistical nightmare trying to keep all of the workitem authorizations in synch.

Jamc, Thanks for the reply. I thought the same way and will do it as you said.

Yes what John said is what most of the people do..giving authorization at individual user level is going to be messy and every time a new user is added you have to query(API) workflow to get the existing authorizations and update it...not great...
