Company Security

Each security group is associated with one primary company. A security group’s primary company is identified in the Company Security file, within the Company Security folder. If more than one company is selected in the Company security file, then a validation error will appear asking the user to restrict the company selection to one company. Errors must be fixed before the Company Security file can be checked-in.

There are three items in the Company Security folder:

Company Security file: this is where the primary company is identified. This company will be visible to users of this security group when logged into OIPA.
Company Pages: this folder contains all company level pages. Right-click on the Company folder under this node to grant access to all company pages or remove access from all company pages. Security can also be assigned on a page by page basis.

Company Pages Right-Click Option

WebService Security: this folder contains a list of Web Services associated with the company. Security can be assigned to each Web Service individually.
