Transaction Security

After Company and Plan security have been defined, the transactions associated with the company and plans are displayed under the Transaction Security folder. Plan folders are listed inside the associated company folder.

Security can be added to all transactions in a plan by right-clicking on the plan name. Security can also be assigned to individual transactions by opening the Plan folder and selecting a specific transaction.

Transaction Security Right-Click Options

Security is applied from the top down. Once Primary Company security is defined in the Company file and the Company pages, then the Plan Security folder will populate with available plans. Once Plan security is defined, then the Transaction Security folder will populate with available transactions.
