Security access needed for Infor Process Automation users

When Infor Process Automation (IPA) is installed, the security classes and roles in the following table are delivered. Other applications might deliver their own classes and roles that provide similar access to those described here. Your application documentation should explain the behavior of security classes and roles it delivers.

You can assign the delivered roles to users or create your own roles by mixing and matching the available security classes to meet your needs. (Doing this requires knowledge of Infor Landmark Technology security tools.)

You can also, if you are expert at working with the Infor Landmark Technology security tools, create your own security classes and assign them to roles that you create.

Note: 

In the table below "_ST" indicates "Standard Template" and is intended to help you recognize a delivered security class or role (as opposed to one you might have created yourself).
