1.24 Maintain Functions for Users

This topic explains systematic instructions to maintain functions in the User Maintenance screen.

In addition to attaching a user profile to a role, the rights can be given to individual functions. For a user profile to which no role is attached, access can be given to specific functions.
  • If attached one or more roles to a user profile
  • If access is given to individual functions to a profile to which roles are attached
The rights for Function IDs that figure in both the role and user-specific functions will be applied as explained in the following example.

For example, The role profile FXDP1 has access to New, Copy, Delete, Close, Reopen, Unlock, and Print for the Forward Rates table.

Attach the user profile of Tanya to the role FXDP1. While allotting rights to individual functions for Tanya, give rights to New, Copy, Delete, and Close for the Forward Rates table. The role has access rights to Reopen, Unlock and Print in addition to these. In such a case, the user profile of Tanya will have rights to only the functions to which rights are given at the user profile level (that is, New, Copy, Delete, and Close) even if the role FXDP1 has rights to other functions.
