Thirteen user levels are available: Administrator, Intermediate-2 through Intermediate-9, All Intermediate, Basic Reviewer and Submitter, Basic Reviewer, and All
Application security includes the application object, which controls the form that is being secured, and the controls for each object (button, selection). In the previous figure, the main FDM screen is being secured. The Locations link is set to Administrator users.
The administrator determines security levels for each object. Typically, different types of users access FDM, including the following:
The administrator controls the locations and import formats and other items.
The intermediate user is responsible for loading data to the target system.
The view user, such as an auditor, is one that should not change data.
The controls review users are those who need only to access the Process Explorer screen.
When users are assigned a user level in the User Maintenance portion of security, they have access to every object assigned that level and higher. For example, if a user is assigned Intermediate-7, the following conditions apply:
The user can access each object that has Intermediate-7 through Intermediate-9, and All.
The user cannot access objects assigned to Administrator or to Intermediate-2 through Intermediate-7 levels.
