Tell us what you are trying to do?
Setting Author role to not be able to edit their published posts. They can only publish - they cannot edit or delete. If you try to do this in Access, it forces you to allow them to do all three.

Is there any documentation that you are following?
I have found functions.php snippets I am testing.

Update:
I tried the following on a test stage and it seems to work fine. Will this cause any problems with Toolset going forward?

/* Testing Removing Author Permission to edit or delete own posts */

function wpb_change_author_role(){
global $wp_roles;
$wp_roles->remove_cap( 'author', 'delete_posts' );
$wp_roles->remove_cap( 'author', 'delete_published_posts' );
$wp_roles->remove_cap( 'author', 'edit_published_posts' );
}
add_action('init', 'wpb_change_author_role');

Also, why is it that I cannot achieve this through the Access plugin?

Thanks,
Corey
