Hi:
For two users, one in A/P and the other in Purchasing, what is the best means of conducting segregation of duties?
Thanks!
John
Assign them different roles and rolecenters is that best way to go i think.
Exactly what role and rolecenter is dependent of what exact tasks they will performe.
Hi
Usually purchaser should not be able to receive the product or pay for invoice. A/P should not be able to create PO or receive it. Also, AP should not be able to approve the PO.
See the following articles

John,
SOD SOX compliance I would teach my customers to use the specific Roles for each User. Now, the permissions will restrict the ability to perform functions/features. So for A/P, use the Accounts Payable Coordinator and Purchasing use Purchasing or Purchasing Agent.
Thanks,
Steve
