Understanding the Menu Filtering Role Chooser

In P95921, you can select the "Choose role on Menu filtering page" option to give users the ability to filter menus by role in the EnterpriseOne Menus. When enabled, the EnterpriseOne web client displays the Role drop-down menu above the EnterpriseOne Menus. From the Role drop-down menu, users can select *ALL (All My Roles) to view a concatenated list of all the tasks enabled for every role that is included in the *ALL role. Alternatively, users can select a particular role from the Role drop-down menu and the system displays only the tasks enabled for that role in the EnterpriseOne Menus.

The "Choose role on Menu filtering page" option is a global setting. When enabled, it applies to all users in the system.

In order for users to filter menus by role:

• The system administrator must enable the "Choose role on Menu filtering page" option in P95921.

• Users must sign in using *ALL.

Note: If a user signs in to EnterpriseOne using a particular role instead of *ALL, then the system only displays the tasks in the EnterpriseOne Menus for that role; the user cannot select a different role in the EnterpriseOne Menus.
