Security roles are used to define access rights for Financial Management tasks. The tasks that you can perform in Set Up Journals, Journal Templates, and Process Journals depend on your role when you log on. If a journal option is not available to you, the option is disabled, or it is displayed with a message alerting you that you do not have the required rights to use it.
You must have Read access to the security class for a journal, and Read access to one or more of the cells referenced in the line items, to open the journal. If you do not have Read access to the cells, journal reports display NOACCESS status for these cells. You must have All access to the security class for a journal to edit the journal. To post a journal, you must have All access to the security classes of every dimension in the detail lines that uses security classes. Financial Management also contains a default security class. If a journal does not have a security class assigned, the system assumes the default class. Access to the journal depends on whether you have rights to the default security class, entities, accounts, scenario, or custom dimensions in the journal.
These default security roles pertain to journals:
