Push Button, Link, and Image Security on Subforms

You can secure push buttons, links, and images on both embedded and reusable subforms in EnterpriseOne. If you secure controls on an embedded subform, only the controls within that subform are secured. For reusable subforms, the behavior of the security depends upon the context in which the reusable subforms are used in power forms. If you apply security to a reusable subform under a power form, then only the controls in that reusable subform for that particular power form are secured, even if the reusable subform is used by another power form, as shown in this diagram:

However, if you apply security to a reusable subform under a power form, and that subform is reused in the same power form, the security is applied to both subforms, as shown in this diagram:

Because security functions differently on embedded subforms than it does on reusable subforms, Security Workbench provides a way for you to distinguish between the two forms. To make this distinction, the tree structure in Security Workbench displays the embedded subform using its form ID, and it displays the reusable subform using its form title.
