Use this screen to create and/or maintain the Org Security Lookup table. All of the organizational profile information is merged into one table and, at the same time, the wild cards are eliminated for speed of data retrieval. The Organization Security Profile table contains all organizations to which each profile has access, whether the rights application method is set to inclusive or exclusive. The speed of this process depends on the rights application method associated with each profile.
Run this application either after setting up all organizational profiles or any time you add an organization or change and/or add a profile. Run this for all profiles when first setting up organizational security and when using the range feature for maintenance.
After entering your preferences, click on the toolbar to start updating organizational security profiles.
Use the fields in this block to create a new parameter ID or to retrieve a previously saved parameter ID. A parameter ID represents a set of screen selection parameters. After you have saved a parameter ID and its related parameters, you can retrieve them using Query.
You can use the retrieved parameters to produce reports and run processes more efficiently and with greater consistency. The saved parameters are also useful and necessary when you want to run the process as part of a batch job. Many users save a unique set of parameters for each different way they run a report or process. When you select a previously saved parameter ID or parameter description, the associated saved screen selection parameters automatically display as selection defaults. The page setup and print options are also included in the saved parameter ID if there are any. You can change any of the associated selection defaults as necessary.
Enter, or click to select, a parameter
ID of up to 15 alphanumeric characters. Choose characters for your parameter
ID that help identify the type of selections you made in the screen, such
as PERIOD or QUARTERLY.
When you save your record, all the selections made in the screen are stored with the parameter ID. Later, you can retrieve the parameter using Query.
You can use the parameter to run the process more efficiently because you can select the parameter ID with its previously defined screen selections. After the default selections display in the screen, you can override the defaults.
Enter, or click to select, a parameter
description of up to 30 alphanumeric characters.
