BPCS/LX Tip of the Week: Role-Based Security

Anthony Etzel 0 24896 Article rating: No rating

Role-Based Security introduces role type profiles and allows combining the use of role profiles with the traditional LX user type security profile functionality. The new role type profile can be defined to allow or deny access to All Products, Attention Key, Programs, and Transaction Effects.

Facility, Warehouse, and Company securities are still defined solely by the user profile settings and are not affected by the assignment of a role. Where applicable, the role authority is displayed alongside the user authority on the security profile maintenance screens making it easy to see where there are differences in authority between the user and the assigned roles.

When users are assigned to roles, security access in LX becomes a combination of authorities granted or denied by the role plus any user exceptions. User exceptions override authorities set by the roles. A user can also be assigned to more than one role.

Infor LN & Baan Tip: Remove Posted Payment/Direct Debit Batches

The functionality of session Remove Posted payment batches tfcmg1259m000 and Remove posted Direct Debit batches tfcmg4259m000 is explained below:

1.These 2 sessions can be used to removed already posted payment/direct debit batches that have been processed through CMG Module. After the batches are changed to removed status they can be deleted also.

2. Only a superuser, defined in the Payment Authorizations (tfcmg1100m000) can delete the payment/direct debit batch.

3. A payment/direct debit batch once removed cannot be retrieved. The data gets removed only from payment advice tfcmg1609m000/direct debit batch tfcmg4609m000 and composed payments/direct debits.

4. The details of the invoices that were selected in the removed payment/direct debit batch can be seen in session anticipated payment/receipt tfcmg2504m000 and from here you go into the anticipated document details to see the list of invoices selected.

5. Remove payment batches does not impact the check master and the check details remain in the check master. 

6. The anticipated receipt/payment document can be reconciled as usual following the receipt/payment reconciliation process.

7. The anticipated payment/receipt document details are not removed from GLD and ACR sessions or tables and can be seen in document history and ACP/ACR open entries.

8. The direct debit batch number can be retrieved from session tfacr6500m000(receipt related document). And the payment advice batch number can be retrieved from payment-related document tfacp6500m000 or the check master if the payment has been done through checks.
