Hello

I have been asked to modify custom security role for purchase requisition. The modification is to allow the role to see All suppliers . When the View suppliers priviledge was added, the role can see the All suppliers page, but in addition it has access to the "Add supplier to another legal entity "

The security role for purchase requisition should not have access to this Copy- Add supplier to another legal entity. It is only System admin role that should be able to do this.

Please how can I remove access to this part of the form while the role still has access to View All suppliers

Thank you

Hi,

Are you working on Custom Security role? So maybe try to deny access to Copy- Add supplier menu Item, if it is menu Item.

You can see all security roles and privileges related to All Suppliers screen by as in the following screenshot:

Hi Fade,

The functionality to add a vendor to another legal entity is managed using a display menu item VendRequestAddVendor. You can check where this menu item is used, but not using Security diagnostics as suggested by Waed. The security diagnostics will only show information related to the page you have opened on the form which is the All vendors list page and not the dialog to copy a vendor to another legal entity.

In the standard application, the menu item for adding the vendor to another legal entity is part of:

Privilege: Manage all vendor requests (VendRequestListPageMaintain)

Duty: Maintain employee-initiated vendor requests (VendRequestEmployeeVendorRequestMaintain)

You can check if the duty and/or privilege is linked to your custom role. In that case, remove the object(s). In case these objects are not used, custom duties and privileges may be used. You can then find out what is used by going to the Security configuration page. Find your custom role and click on View permissions. On this page you can filter on the field Context/Resource with the value VendRequestAddVendor. It will then show the used duties and privileges.

Hi Waed

Thank you for your contribution. The security diagnostics has always been my first option in investigating any security related issue. It hadn't work on the related issue hence my message to the wider community for help.

Hi Andre

Thank you very much for your contribution.

Most of my custom security roles are duplicate of standard roles. What we did was to remove or add the duty and or priviledge as necessary.

My custom purchase requisition requester role actually has these two objects:

Privilege: Manage all vendor requests (VendRequestListPageMaintain)

Duty: Maintain employee-initiated vendor requests (VendRequestEmployeeVendorRequestMaintain)

I have removed the objects and the purchase requisition requester security role doesn't grant access to the Add supplier to another legal entity dialogue anymore.

Issue resolved
