Setting Security for Business Units and Cashier Offices

To set up business unit and cashier office security, use two Business Unit components (SEC_UNITSF_OPR and UNIT_CLASS_SECURIT).

The pages discussed in this section enable you to grant security access to business units and to cashier offices within business units. If the institution does not use the cashiering feature, you do not need to set up cashier security, but you can set up business unit security.

Depending on the security option that you select for business units on the Security Options page, you should grant access to a business unit and cashier office using permission lists or user IDs. If you select no security for business units on the Security Options page, you do not need to complete the pages discussed in this section, because all user IDs and permission lists have access to all business units.

This section lists prerequisites and discusses how to:

Before you set security for business units and cashier offices, you must:

  • Set up business units.

  • Set up cashier offices.
