GP 2010 Payroll Only Roles

Posted on by 75,730

I have a client who after an audit now wants to remove all access to payroll functions for non-payroll people. Which roles are the payroll only roles? I may need to create new roles for just the payroll tasks and assign those roles to people.

    Thank you for this thorough explanation. I will start by checking to see if they have Account Level Security turned on.

    In Dynamics GP, the predefined security roles which explicitly include payroll functions are;

    • Accounting Manager Role
    • Payroll Clerk Role

    Although, there are several other security roles which might have access to Payroll Window, mostly associated with AP. For instance, AP Clerk Role. See Reference, Security Roles in GP2013

    In this essence, any further security roles which includes one or more of the following security tasks shall be revised;

    SECURITYTASKID SECURITYTASKNAME
    ADMIN_PAYRL_001* Set up Payroll
    ADMIN_PAYRL_002* Reconcile Payroll data
    ADMIN_PAYRL_003* Remove payroll information
    ADMIN_PAYRL_004* Edit payroll liabilities
    ADMIN_PAYRL_005* Mass update
    ADMIN_PAYRL_006* Estimate gross pay
    ADMIN_PAYRL_007* Period end payroll routines
    ADMIN_PAYRL_008* Payroll tables
    INQ_PAYRL_001* View payroll transaction history
    INQ_PAYRL_002* View employee/payroll information
    INQ_PAYRL_003* View pay code history
    INQ_PAYRL_004* View company payroll summary
    RPT_PAYRL_001* Employee list reports
    RPT_PAYRL_002* Employee wage and hour reports with history
    RPT_PAYRL_003* Reprint journals
    RPT_PAYRL_004* Payroll setup reports
    RPT_PAYRL_005* Period end payroll reports with posting
    RPT_PAYRL_006* Quarter end payroll reports
    RPT_PAYRL_007* Cross-company reports
    RPT_PAYRL_010* Employee/payroll letters
    TRX_PAYRL_001* Enter payroll transactions
    TRX_PAYRL_002* Build payroll checks
    TRX_PAYRL_003* Calculate payroll checks
    TRX_PAYRL_004* Print payroll checks
    TRX_PAYRL_005* Generate ACH file
    TRX_PAYRL_006* Enter manual payroll checks
    TRX_PAYRL_007* Enter/edit Payroll batches
    TRX_PAYRL_008* Void payroll checks
    TRX_PAYRL_009* Activate post-dated pay rates

    I would like to shed a light on an essential issue when it comes to completely removing the access to "Payroll" function for non-payroll people. In addition to windows access, Account Level Security is a must in this case.

    In one of the environment I worked at where Account Level Security was implemented, on the organization structure, two different levels were defined which are ; AP Accountant, and AP Payroll Accountant. Each of these levels is granted access on the associated account of the its function per "main segment". This ensures that not only windows access is removed by accounts as well.
