    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
