Enterprise Portal - Security

Posted on by 660

Dear Friends,

We are implementing expense management for one of our customer and the customer wants that only the expense report form should be visible to employees on the enterprise portal.

How can I do that?

    Hi Friends,

    I have finally managed to create a new security role through which only Expense reports can be created, however now I am finding another issue that since there might be other users who have a standard security role like accounts manager which results in more access than necessary on the enterprise portal. How can I remove these accesses from the standard role?

    Hi Binit,

    I think you forgot to include the privilege details. Can you post the image or tell about the contents? Which exact menu item are you trying to start?

    Hi Binit,

    You can use security roles for this purpose. With help of the Security development tool you can record entry points and then set access levels for (new) privileges.

    Hi Binit Shah,

    The menu item can simply be removed from the AOT - Menus - Travel and Expense node. Yet, please test this carefully in a demo environment to ensure that this is what you want.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Hi Binit Shah,

    Can't this be achieved by removing the expense report menu items from the AX client?

    Before trying to do that think about how expense reports are approved, posted and paid in order to make sure that you do not need access to this form through the AX client.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig
