Salesforce Page Layout

In an organization, If an application has created, it will be accessed by many people. Even though all the people belong to one organization, these people may not have an equal designation. So an app designer provides the different kinds of permission to different kinds of users. And these designers achieve this through the salesforce PAGE layout Concept. 

PAGE Layout usually refers to assigning different access level permissions to different kinds of users.

So now let's go to its implementation

step - 1 :

Click on the object ( Business process) , from the quick access, menu click on Objects. From the Record type section, click on NEW.Salesforce Page Layout

step - 2 :

Assign Record label and manager as Manager and click on Next.Salesforce Page Layout

step - 3 :

Click on SAVE.

If you clearly observe the above screenshot, it has a One Page layout. So, it has been automatically assigned to that layout. And in real time, the cloud user/ sales developer may have a different layout. And the person can assign a different kind of layouts to different records. So now let us create a new Page Layout and we will assign different kinds of records to different layouts. So now let's start creating a page layout.

Since a cashier will not be able to access all the options like Manager, we need to hide some options for the cashier layout. So your question is
