Adding User Security

Each data source might require user security. User security acts like a proxy that transforms the current user into another user when accessing the data. User security is generally required for language setup of user profiles. A user profile often contains language information that you need to convert characters between code pages. The wrong user profile can cause data corruption or data source connection problems. User profiles must be set up correctly on each database server and in JD Edwards software to perform user security.

Access the Work With User Security form.

1. Complete the User ID/Role field and click Find.

2. Add all of the necessary data source connections for each user and click OK.

3. Repeat this task for each user ID that accesses the data source's setup.
