Users, Roles, and *PUBLIC

The EnterpriseOne security administrator can set up security for:

• A particular user

  This option controls security by specific EnterpriseOne user ID.

• A user role

  This option controls security by role, which enables you to group users based on similar job requirements. An example is putting all of the accounts payable clerks in one role, such as Accounts Payable (AP).

• All users

  This option controls security for all users who are designated by ID type *PUBLIC in the User or Role field. The designation *PUBLIC is a special ID within EnterpriseOne that automatically includes all of the users within it. You can use this ID to apply security even if you do not have a specific record set up for it in user profiles.
