Program Security

The application uses program security to determine which programs users can access. For example, program security could be used to restrict a user from accessing Journal Control (GL45.1).

You define program security for a security class and product line, which contains the Lawson programs and data files. Program security can be set up for a:

• System code

• Form

• Form tab

• Form action code

• Line action code

Security setup for these different components is progressive. In other words, you must define security for a form action before you can define security for a line action. For example, you could prevent a user from backing out entries using Journal Control (GL45.1) by giving them access to the Change form action but restricting them from accessing the Backout line action.
