The PeopleSoft Integration Network features a Service Operations Permissions page (IB_HOME_PAGE10) that enables you to set and modify permissions for individual network services operations.

A Bulk Service Operation Permissions page (IB_HOME_PAGE10A) is provided for setting permissions for network service operations.

You can search for service operations for which to set permissions at the integration group, service, or service operation level.

Note: You can set and modify service operation permissions on the local node only.

Use the Service Operation Permissions page (IB_HOME_PAGE10) to set permissions for individual service operations.

To access the page, select PeopleTools > Integration Broker > Integration Network WorkCenter > Administration > Service Operation Permissions.
