Security and Access Issues
Use this table to troubleshoot security and access issues that affect Payables Agent users.
| Issue | What to check | Corrective action |
|---|---|---|
| User can’t access a Payables Agent page | Check assigned privileges, custom roles, permission groups, and role provisioning. | Assign the required access and process permission-group policies. |
| User can access the page but sees no invoice data | Check Business Unit data security for the user and role combination. | Assign Business Unit access and process permission-group policies. |
| User can’t drill down from Invoice Document Streams to Invoice List | Check whether the user has Invoice List access and Business Unit access for the invoice. | Assign the required Invoice List privilege and Business Unit access. |
| User can’t download source documents | Check whether the user has the source-document download privilege and access to the invoice Business Unit. | Assign source-document access only to users who require it. |
| User can’t open the Correction Spreadsheet | Check whether the user has the correction-spreadsheet privilege and access to the invoice Business Unit. | Assign correction access to users responsible for rejected-invoice correction. |
| Recent security changes don’t take effect | Check whether permission-group policies were processed after the change. | Process permission-group policies and retest with the affected user account. |
| User can’t access Compliance & Control | Check whether the user has the Manage Payables Compliance and Control or View Payables Compliance and Control privilege. | Assign the appropriate privilege based on whether the user must manage or only review policies and controls. |
| User can view policies but can’t modify them | Check whether the user has only the view privilege. | Assign Manage Payables Compliance and Control only when the user is authorized to create or modify policies and controls. |
The Compliance & Control experience requires the applicable manage or view privilege.
