Application Security- Please Help!!!

[Shazza]

I have two applications that I need to secure out:

P4210 - (Version MF0001SO) – Sales order

And

P4210 – (Version MF0007) - Transfer Order Entry

I need to give users Read only access to the Sales Order entry screen, but Update access to the Transfer order entry screen. The problem is that they use the same program, but different versions. Is there anyway I can lock our one version of the program, but not the other??
Please Help!!!

You could make a copy of the P4210 application, call it something like P554210, and then secure it differently than P4210. Note that you'll then have to maintain the P554210 as a custom application, so it won't be updated automatically by ESU's, etc.

We've taken this approach with P4210 and it has worked for us.

Cleaning up and found this one...

Ideally securing these exits at the version level would be the preferred method.

One workaround with P4210 is to set the Processing Options on the version so that even if they do try to make changes that they are restricted.
a. Beginning Status - set this to a status invalid as per the activity rules (e.g. 555?)
b. Status Limit for changes - set this to 520?

This will slow them down when trying to maintain orders using this version.

Hope this helps.
