Permission bug in V16

After upgrading to V16 the role permission for select is broken.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Assign a role (e.g Manufacturing User) select only permission on Employee doctype

  1. Login as user having only the select permission

  2. Select Employee in the actual time log in the job card

Expected: List of employee to select from

Actual: Permission error

You do not have permission to access field: Employee.status

Could you please create a GitHub issue for this?

Do you have workflow there ?
For me this worked:

No, I don’t have a workflow, I can’t give read permission either, Employee doctype has sensitive information.
