A user can only view those records that fully match the security label. If multiple labels determine access to the record, it will only be available to the user if the conditions for each label match.

Example:

If the “type of material” attribute has the “oak” assigned label, the “type of product” attribute has the “plaque” assigned label, only records that match both those conditions will be displayed. If the record does not match at least one label, it will not be available.
