Security in General Journal Review

Active Member
Has anyone implemented security in the General Journal Review program P00201? See menu G0911 option J09201. As shipped from JDE, a user can review batches for all business units. There is no security to restrict the user from viewing/processing batches created by persons in other business units.


Can you think of a simpler solution than the following?
Add an input field (Business Unit) to video for P00201.
Verify that the user has authority to the specified business unit.
If user has authority, display for review only those batches associated with that business unit.

Because the Batch Header has the user name only, determining security would require following:
With User ID, retrieve Address Book number from F0092.
With employer number, retrieve Responsible Business Unit from F0101.
With Responsible Business Unit, retrieve security validation from F00011.
If batch passes this test, display the batch on video 00201 for General Journal Review.

Seems like there ought to be a shorter path to accomplish our goal.
What thoughts do you have?

My 'Security in General Journal Review' question has been answered by Gary Gallant. He recommended menu 07/G94.

We have a similar situation where it is necessary to
restrict certain users
from certain business units in all programs. We used
Business Unit
Security (G94/J00011) and identified by user groups
those business units
that particular group had access too. If your users
are in groups there is
not a lot of maintenance involved; however, if your
security is user
specific, this approach might be a job to maintain.

We use batch security as set up by JDE. It is not by
business unit, but by
user. User X is able to see and post batches done by
user X,Y,X. As defined
by batch security.
See menu G94 option 7. There are some things to set up
in each module as
well, if I remember correctly.

I think all you have to do is set up the business unit
security for the
users and specify which business units they are
authorized to access. If we
don't want a user to access certain vendors in the
accounts payable, we
don't give them access to the business units assigned
to those vendors.

We, at Durban Metro Council, are using option 7 under
menu G94 to restrict the
user to review batches created by staff only. This
security feature works
perfectly for us.

Eric,

JDEdwards has a batch approval/post security setup
(7/G94). It sounds to me
like this will handle what you are looking for.

Gary
 
we use business unit security. Works fine
