Re: Setting Up Your Security Levels/Access

Date: March 8, 2000

Setting up users and their access to modules and programs is a simple concept, but needs to be thought out completely before you start entering users. Prepare a worksheet of module and program codes for each user prior to filling in their security levels on RIMAS NT/P.

The programs that you will be using to setup users are User Code Maintenance, User Codes Access and Program Codes Access. Before entering data into any of these programs

1. Decide who will have access to the modules,

2. Decide who will have access to each program within the modules,

3. Familiarize yourself with the RIMAS NT/P numbering system. (Remember that zero has the greatest authority.)

Other Things To Know Before You Begin

1. The Administration Module needs to be setup for all users. This is so the user will have access to the RIMAS NT/P system. It does not give access to the Administration programs. Administration will always maintain a zero access level, while users (unless they have Admin authority) will never be given a zero access level.

2. The numbering system goes from zero to 32000, but keep it simple. The fewer integers you use, the easier it will be to control.

3. The Load Defaults function in Program Codes Maintenance needs to be used for only the first user being entered into the system.

It is important that when you are entering access levels for more than two modules in User Access Maintenance that you save after you enter each module for that user.
