Replacing User Security
To copy or assign Campus Solutions user security, use the User Security Replacement component (SCRTY_OPRID_REPLAC) or the Mass User Security Replacement component (SCC_MASS_SCRTY_UPD).
Copying a security setup is the same as going to each appropriate menu and entering data for each security object to assign security for a specific user. Replacement security automates the process for you by enabling you to copy a security profile either to another individual user or to several users in mass.
This section discusses how to:
Replace user security for an individual.
Replace user security for multiple individuals.
Note: User security replacement described here applies only to Campus Solutions user security. It does not apply to PeopleTools security.

If you do not want to replace each of this user's security objects with all the security objects of one user ID, indicate the replacement user ID for each object that you want to replace. You do not have to replace all objects. For those objects that you do not want to replace, leave the field blank. |
