User management

User management is designed to control which users of the application have access to which features and functions. For example, one user may be able to Dock Log and Deliver, but not view the productivity reports. Much like Windows security, User Management uses a scheme of users, groups and rights to control access privileges.

Users can be loaded from Infor Security or entered directly into User Management. Each individual uses one user ID and password to log into Infor Receiving and Delivery.

Infor users

Infor users are individuals with a user account that exists only in MSCM or who have been set up with the appropriate identities and security in the FSM or Infor Lawson system. The security for users in the FSM or Infor Lawson system can be either Infor Security or LAUA security.

Groups

Groups contain users that perform the same tasks, such as administrators or receiving clerks. Administrators assign tasks to user groups based on the role of the users in that group. When the users log into the application, only those tasks that are assigned to them appear.
