Security Considerations

You might have data in your system for which you want to prevent access by some users. For example, you might have confidential billing rate information in your system that not all users should access.

Project status inquiry writes job and billing data to the Project Status Inquiry Worktable (F51X10). You should consider setting up row or table security for the F51X10 table if you have confidential information in these tables read by the system:

  • Business Unit Master (F0006)

  • Account Master (F0901)

  • Account Balances (F0902)

  • Account Ledger (F0911)

  • Billing Detail Workfile (F4812)

  • Billing Workfile History (F4812H)

  • Customer Ledger (F03B11)

  • Invoices Summary Workfile (F4822)

See "Using Security Workbench" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Tools Security Administration Guide.

Project status inquiry provides these security features:

  • Processing options in the Work with Project Status Inquiry program (P51X0200):

    • Restrict Column Layout

      You can set this processing option to restrict changes and additions to column layouts. If you restrict changes, then users cannot add additional columns to view additional information.

    • Display Contract/Service Billing Columns

      You can set this processing option to prevent the system from displaying columns associated with billing amounts in the Work with Project Status Inquiry program.

    • Allow View Later Processing

      You can set this processing option to prevent users from saving results.

    See Setting Processing Options for Work with Project Status Inquiry (P51X0200).

  • Processing options in the Work with Project Status Inquiry View Program (P51X0310):

    • View Any User

      You can set this processing option to restrict each user to viewing only the results generated by the user.

    • Delete Any User

      You can set this processing option to restrict each user to deleting only the results generated by the user.
