Understanding Commitment Control Security

Commitment Control security augments the security used by your PeopleSoft applications, enabling you to secure the Commitment Control functions, such as creating or modifying budgets or overriding exceptions, that a user may perform on ChartField combinations for which you have established control budgets.

To set up Commitment Control security, you define a series of security rules that enable particular Commitment Control functions for particular budgets. You then apply those security rules to user IDs, permission lists, or dynamic views consisting of user IDs and associated ChartFields.

This section discusses:

• Security set up order.

• Security events.

• Security rules.

• Security rule assignment.
