Permission Lists

Permission lists are the building blocks of PeopleTools user security authorization. A permission list grants a particular degree of access to specified PeopleSoft elements such as pages, portals, menus, component interfaces, development environments, signon time periods, administrative tools, personalizations, and so on. Permission lists are specific to a specific set of objects that are necessary to support a unique security role. Security roles might have overlapping—but not identical—access requirements. You typically define permission lists before you define security roles and user profiles.

Project Costing delivers preconfigured sample permission lists that grant access to various pages. These permission lists support the sample functional security roles that are delivered with the application.

Important:

If you modify a permission list, you change the access for all users who are assigned to security roles that are associated with the permission list.

See PeopleTools: Security Administration, "Setting Up Permission Lists."

This table lists some of the delivered sample permission lists that provide access to Project Costing, and typical security roles that are associated with each permission list:
