Problems with Menu Security

Question:

I gave a user access to AP but why they are getting a message of access denied when they enter our fund/corporation number?

Resolution:

User was not set up under Job Entity Security which gives access to the Corp/Div/Dept/Job Security. Follow instructions below to set up:

Part 2 - Corp/Div/Dept/Job Entity Security

CLONE/COPY an Existing User

If the new user is to have the same entity security as an EXISTING user, you can clone/copy the security FROM the existing user to the new userl.  To do this, select #1-General Functions from the Main Menu.  Then select #1-X-App File Maintenance Menu #1.  From there select #13-Clone Security User-to-User.  Enter the FROM and TO Userids and press ENTER.        
                                                                               
NEW USER from Scratch

To set up user entity security from scratch, select #1-General Functions from the Main Menu.  Then select #1-X-App File Maintenance Menu #1.  From there select #12-Security by User. Enter the new USERID and press ENTER.   If the user is authorized to ALL corps/divs/depts/jobs, key '999' under the Corp column and press ENTER and F20 to accept. See the screen below.

User ID . . . . . .   DXFM19                                        
Position to . . . .          By Corp                                  
                                                                     
  CRP Desc          DIV Desc          DPT Desc            Job Desc    

    999

If the user is restricted to a specific company but is authorized to ALL divs/depts/jobs within the company, key the Corp# on the Corp column and '999' in the Div# column and press ENTER and F20.   The same logic holds true if the user is restricted to a specific company and division but authorized to all depts/jobs within that Corp/Div.  Key in the Corp#, the Div# and then '999' in the Dept# column and press ENTER and F20.
