Integration user groups

You can use integration user groups for two purposes:

  • To allow employees to post integration transactions, you must create at least one integration user group and add the employees to the integration user group. Only employees who belong to an integration user group can post the integration transactions. This type of use is mandatory.
  • To group the employees who create transactions in the various areas of Operations Management, you can create integration user groups. The integration user group is part of the integration transaction data that is logged. This allows you to select the integration transactions for mapping and posting by Operations Management area. If the employee does not belong to an integration transaction user group, this field remains blank. This type of use is optional and serves for information only.

You can enter a range of integration user groups as selection criterion for the integration transactions to be processed in these sessions:

  • Map Integration Transactions (tfgld4281m000)
  • Post Integration Transactions (tfgld4282m000)
  • Print Integration Transactions Error Log (tfgld4484m000)

To reduce the batch sizes, in the Integration Parameters (tfgld4150s000) session, you can specify that batches for the posting of the integration transactions must be created per transaction type and integration user group of the user who posts the transactions.

Note

If you post integration transactions and you use the integration user group as a selection criterion in the Post Integration Transactions (tfgld4282m000) session, it is not mandatory that the range includes the integration user group to which you belong.

To define integration user groups:

  1. In the Integration User Groups (tfgld4135m000) session, enter the code and a description for the integration user group.
  2. Double-click the new entry. The Integration Transaction Users (tfgld4136m000) session starts.
  3. On the Integration Transaction Users tab, click the New icon.
  4. In the User field, zoom to the User Data (ttaad2500m000) session and select a user.
  5. Specify additional users as required.
