Column Security on a Table

Before you set up column security on a table, do these:

  • Verify that the object that you want to secure is in the table.

  • Verify that the object that you want to secure is part of an application that uses a business view over a table containing the object.

  • Verify that the object that you want to secure uses a business view that includes the column containing the object.

For example, if you want to apply column security to data item RLS (Release Number) in the F00941 table, RLS must be an item in that table, and it must also be part of an application using a business view over that table. Finally, the business view over the F00941 table must include a column containing the data item RLS.

If all of these conditions are met, you can successfully apply column security to the data item. Setting column security on a table also means that you set security on the data item for any other applications that use the F00941 table.
