Working with the UI Access Control feature

With release 2023.10, Landmark has made available the UI Access Control feature. Customers can use the feature to create role-based access policies for web application content, including their associated navigation items and for Infor-delivered reports.

The feature, which is included with the Security Administration web application, provides a simple interface for denying access. Writing LPL is not required.

Note the following important properties of the UI Access Control feature:
  • UI Access Control configuration supersedes security classes that might have been created for the same components.
  • UI Access Control configuration overrides any menu configurations that customers might have performed using Configuration Console. Customers who have made menu changes should analyze the configuration that is in place before using the UI Access Control. They should also verify that they are still intact after using the feature.
  • Data and actions cannot be secured through the UI Access Control feature. Security classes must be created for these items.
Administrators must have one of these roles to use the UI Access Control feature:
  • ConfigConsoleSecurityAdmin_ST
  • SecurityConfigAccess_ST
  • An equivalent role created at your site
