Activating multi-organization security

Using multi-organization security (MOS), establish record-level security for system forms depending on the organization of the record. To utilize record-level security for a form, first activate MOS capability for the entity associated with each function.

Example:

The system user "John" is associated with Infor EAM user group 1 and Infor EAM user group 2. User group 1 is associated with Organization 1 and User group 2 is associated with Organization 2. User group 1 has full access rights to the Equipment form; User group 2 has query-only rights to the Equipment form. When the system user "John" opens the Equipment form and queries for an equipment record, the system displays only records having organizations to which John has access, and each record retains the permissions of the organization associated with the equipment. Therefore, if the organization of the equipment is Organization 1, John will have full access rights to the record. However, if the organization is Organization 2, John can only view the record.

Note: You cannot establish record-level security for the equipment unless the MULTIORG installation parameter is set to YES.

See Defining installation parameters.

To activate multi-organization security:

  1. Open the Multi-org Security form.
  2. Select the entity for which to activate multi-organization security.
  3. Multi-org—Select to activate the entity.
    Note: After activating an entity for MOS, it cannot be deactivated.

    You can select multiple Multi-org check boxes to activate multi-organization security for multiple entities.

  4. Click Save Record.
