Security Roles - Override

Posted on by Muhammad Yousaf 1,339

Hi All

I want to hide price in the 'Manage Costs' section from some users having a security role of 'Sales Manager'. I have already tried override permission procedure for the table 'InventTableModule' for all the rolls assigned to this user including 'Sales Manager'. I can adjust the 'no access' security for the 'Price' Filed in many roles but not in the sales manager role, whenever I finish and click 'do not override' on the table level, everything goes back to the normal and no change happen in the security role and finally the users are still able to see this field

If someone can help

Regards

Yousaf

    Hi Muhammad Yousaf,

    Have you also tried to apply this change from the AOT on this role directly? If you have changed it using override permissions, can you see changes on the role(s) in the AOT?

    You have to check the Permissions node of the security role for this.

    Hi Andre

    I did not try that from AOT, and I don't know how to see this in AOT, can you please explain more

    Hi Muhammad,

    With security administrator role you can open the development environment using CTRL+D.

    Then in the AOT browse for Security > Roles and find your role where you have overridden some changes or want to override.

    Then expand the node  Permissions > Tables. See if the InventTableModule table is present. If not, you can add a new table by right clicking on the Tables node. In the properties you need to set the access level for the table (e.g. delete). Then you can right click the table and add your field. Now on this field you can set access to NoAccess or ReadOnly. Then save the role (CTRL+S).

    Also check what application layer you are logged in. (e.g. CUS or USR). If you login in e.g. CUS layer and there is already a role adjustment in the USR layer, your changes using the Security override form might be not change the USR layer. I have not tried this before. That might also be the reason why your change seems to revert back.

    Hi Muhammad Yousaf,

    right click the table and select properties, in the window that will open under the 'Table' Property set the name of the table, in this case InventTableModule.

    After that set EffectiveAcces of the table (if the users shouldn't maintain the table set Read)

    After that right-click on the table and click 'New Field' . Same as before look at the properties of the new node and set the name of the field you want to override permission.

    I've found that for my experience you have to set the more restricted access at the top level (Table node in this case) and then override permission with higher level for all the fields that the user can edit/view based on your internal security policy

    Regards,
