Regenerate Security Profiles
A new feature might require you to update some existing custom security profiles to use the feature. You only need to regenerate a security profile when it's required for a new feature. This info is in the What's New document for a release.
Regenerating Security Profiles Individually
You can regenerate a single security profile by editing the profile and then saving it. For example, if you need to regenerate a custom document type security profile, use the Edit Document Type Security Profiles page to make a minor update to the definition of the security profile and then save it.
Regenerating Multiple Security Profiles
You can use the Regenerate Data Security Profiles process to regenerate all of your custom security profiles for any of the following security profile types:
-
Document type security profiles
-
Job Requisition Security Profile
-
Legislative data group (LDG) security profiles
-
Organization security profiles
-
Payroll Security Profile
-
(Payroll) Flow Pattern Security Profile
-
Person security profiles
-
Position security profiles
-

You only need to run this process when it's required for a new feature. To run the Regenerate Data Security Profiles process, follow these steps:
