Managing Field-Level Security across multiple Salesforce objects and Permission Sets can become difficult when teams need to compare or export field permissions for audits, access validation, security reviews, or org documentation.

Using Salesforce standard functionality, Admins often have to open individual Permission Sets one by one and manually review field permissions for each object separately. This process becomes increasingly time-consuming as the number of objects, fields, and Permission Sets grows.
