Permissions Type

The permission types are:

  • Authorization Role is a type of permission assigned to a set of employees with the same role. In the Authorization Roles (tcsec0120m000) session, you can also link a defined authorization role to an AMS or DEM role ( LN user authorizations (OP-CE)). To allow employees with the Project Manager role to modify their own projects, you must set the Authorization Level to Project Manager role and link the same to all the Project Managers.
  • Authorization Policies are used to define corporate policies for data authorization for a group of employees, irrespective of the employee role. A project is created to register an internal task in Hours Accounting (holidays or internal meetings) and all the employees are allowed to use this project. An authorization policy is linked to all the employees. See, Authorization Policies (tcsec0150m000).
  • Assigned Rules are new, additional, or exceptional permission, specific to an employee and can be assigned without changing an existing authorization role or policy. Use the Assigned Rules (tcsec0160m000) session to view and maintain rules defined for an employee. Employee A goes on a holiday. You can assign a rule to another employee to provide access to the projects or purchase orders of employee A.

To set an assigned rule to Expired:

  • Select the Expired check box.
  • If the assigned rule is set to Expired, you cannot modify the value of the Description field and the permissions cannot be applied.
