Hi Everyone,

Just want to ask if possible one user can define as full and limited user?

Thanks

    RE: Full Licenses and Limited access

    Full Users receive unrestricted direct or indirect access to all of the functionality in the licensed server software including setting-up, administering, and managing all parameters or functional processes across

    the ERP Solution. Full Users require more write capabilities that those available to Limited Users.

    Limited Users get restricted access to the ERP Solution to complete only the following tasks:

    • “Read” access to any data contained in the ERP solution; and

    • “Write” access to a maximum of 3 table objects with the following exceptions:

    o Limited users are not authorized to write directly or indirectly to the following tables: General

    Ledger Entry (table number 17), Permission Set (table number 2000000004), Permission (table

    number 2000000005) or Access Control (table number 2000000053); and

    o Tables described in attached Appendix: Limited User Included Tables do not count towards the 3 table objects. Writing the transactions of a Limited User to a temporary table then having a Full User (or a system

    process) post those transactions to table 17 is an example of indirect write access to table 17, which is not permitted. Transactions created by a Limited User are not considered indirect write access if (i) they are

    needed by a Full User as in an input to perform their job function and (ii) transactions are processed individually (not in a batch).

    The Limited User Included Tables should allow you to perform the following tasks:

    Sales

    • Create a Customer with relevant contact details, based on a template or from scratch.

    • Create an Opportunity for an existing Campaign, and relate it to Sales Quotes or Orders.

    • Quotes:

    o Create a Sales Quote for an existing or a new Customer.

    o Send a Sales Quote by email, send it for approval, or convert it to a Sales Order.

    • Orders:

    o Create a Sales Order for an existing or a new Customer.

    o Send a Sales Order for approval.

    Purchase

    • Create a Vendor with relevant contact details, based on a template or from scratch.

    • Create a Purchase Order for an existing or a new Vendor.

    • Send a Purchase Order for approval.

    Other Tasks

    • Fill in an existing timesheet

    • Perform Document Capture - Expense reporting by scanning an invoice to create an incoming document

    Role Centers

    • Use the charts on two role centers: Order Processor (for Sales scenarios) and Purchasing Agent (for Purchase scenarios).

    However, if your specific deployment requires more than 3 tables not part of the Included range in order to fulfill these tasks, a Full User will be required. Any access beyond these limitations requires Full User access. When assigning security rights to users, the system administrator will designate them as Full Users or Limited Users.

    Hope this helps.
