Authorization and Security parameters

You can use the Authorization and Security Parameters (tcsec0100m000) session to set the authorizations and permissions that can be assigned to an employee or employee groups. These authorization and permissions are business process (contract management, project management, requisition, procurement, sales, and warehousing) specific.

Note
  • To enable this functionality, you must select the Authorization and Security check box in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0100s000) session.
  • When a user accesses an authorization and security session, in a company wherein the setup for the same is not applicable, a “Setup of security not allowed, Authorization Definition in Company” message is displayed. However, this is not applicable for the Authorization and Security Parameters (tcsec0100m000) session.

To set up the authorizations for a business process, in the Authorization and Security Parameters (tcsec0100m000) session you must:

  • Select the Authorization and Security Enabled check box.
  • Select the company in which authorizations must be specified.
  • In the Authorization Enabled for group box:
    • Select the business process.
    • Use the Default Authorization field to select the required Authorization Level for the business process.

After defining the permissions and rules, select the Enforce Active Permissions for Current Company to enforce the policies for all the users of the active company.
