Improved Security Controls in QAD’s Enterprise Edition
Posted on: March 23, 2019 | By: Tim Lovely | QAD Business Process, QAD Distribution, QAD Financials, QAD Manufacturing
As we have discussed in the past, QAD’s Enterprise Edition adds more structure and controls to its user security model. The added benefits of the new model continue for our QAD EE clients, with the three high level improvement areas previously noted:
- Role Based Security
- Segregation of Duties
- Transactional Restrictions and Blocking
User Roles can be defined by a given company, with users added to Roles and menu level permissions added to Roles.
With the new Segregation of Duties functionality, users can specify roles that are conflicting and then assign users to those roles. A user who may be in a role allowing creation of Purchase Orders may not be allowed to do Purchase Order Receipts or AP activity, for example.
Other previously defined security exists and has been enhanced, such as site, entity and field security, but the areas above provide a new and improved level of control for QAD EE users.
Transactional Restrictions and Blocking allow for the capability of restricting certain transactions for selected suppliers or customers, for example. You can may disable sales to customers with credit problem, or disable purchasing from suppliers with quality issues. You could also disable transactions for inactive suppliers or customers.
