Security groups

Security groups let administrative users manage user authorizations and access rights to sites, applications, storerooms, labor, general ledger (GL) components, and other aspects of the organization.

To view the current application authorization configuration, use the following SQL query:

    select * from APPLICATIONAUTH where GROUPNAME like 'PMSC%'  and 
      OPTIONNAME in ('OPEN', 'READ', 'SAVE', 'DELETE') order by GROUPNAME, APP

Security groups have been created for each of the Service Catalog roles. In addition, a Service Catalog Administrator security group that is authorized to access all base applications has been defined. The names and responsibilities of each of these are described in the table below. The table also identifies the start center associated with each service group. The start centers contain the links, queries, and KPIs pertinent to the job functions of a particular role.
