Hello All,

I want to hide Setup Menu From General Ledger Module for few roles related to accountant....

Is it possible to hide it in a simple way without using security development tool..?

I have tried by disabling the following Duties... but its not working..

LedgerGeneralLedgerProcessEnable - Enable general ledger process

LedgerGeneralLedgerProcessPerfReview - Review general ledger process performance

LedgerRoleCenterGLProcessPerfReview - Review general ledger process performance through the role center

Can anyone guide me with any other possible ways...? Or what are all the duties should I have to disable to achieve my requirement?

You have to remove those permissions from the security role.

The security development tool makes the development easier, but if you insist, you can do everything manually without the tool.

Hi Martin,

Can you elaborate more about removing permissions from the security role? Where I have to do that?

And I have duplicated the standard role and removed the above mentioned duties, But still I can able to see the setup in GL module... Is there any other duties to be removed to get my scenario?

A security role is a collection of security permissions, organized in privileges and duties. If you have a role that includes permissions that you don't want to included, you should remove this permissions (usually by removing the privilege). Security roles can be found in AOT under Security > Roles.

If you've done that and you still see menu items you don't want, you either didn't remove everything you need or you're getting these permissions from some other role. Don't forget that system administrators have access to the whole system. The test workspace of the security development tool (which you don't want to use for some reason) would help you to test it.

If you want to see which security elements refer to a menu item, right-click the menu item and open Security tools.

I disagree with my friend answer below.

That would be painful to remove or disable the duties from all roles.

What I would recommed:

1-Go to the AOT under the menus for GL setup. Right click and go to the option that show you the object for the menu.

2-Right Click on the object and notice the roles, privilege, duties and entry point that have access to this menu item.

3-You want to grab the privilege, add it to your project.

4-Duplicate the privilege in your project and create a new role. Add the copy of the privilege to your new role.

5-Disable the original privilege set to NO.

6-Done the setup menu is gone for ALL roles menus the system admin and the role you created. You need to do this for each menu item under GL setup. If you need to restore, just go to your project and do so.

Good luck my friend.

Francisco.
