How do I set up the component so that the entries can only be edited by the user who made the entry. Admin user would have full access to all entries.

You can do this with the help of your ACL's
Make your user Author and give him EDIT OWN privileges. And it will have your setup ready.

This is very old topic... lol

The answer is correct, but incomplete.
If you want that the others users do not have access, then you must combine with published = 0
(Published wizard + default value:0)

Then when an item is published, the author will still have the only access to edit, and the item will be shared.
Very simple indeed.
Coding is now a piece of cake

Awards for the best Joomla app. This product is gonna win an award for this amazing job. Cook Self Service is the the best application from all over the Joomla universe ! It brings Joomla to a professional level really advanced for developers. It is a real fun to develop with it. The ACL part and security checks implementation are just... so much hours saved. I can now concentrate myself more on the design part and the creative works. Thank you so much. Guys I offer you all my congratulation ! Keep up the works because Joomla is needing it to increase the quality of extensions availables on the JED. I also learned a lot because I can see how to code at the proper place and I found all my answers reading the forum.
