Data Access Controls and the Document Process Controls

image_pdfimage_print

GOOMI application allows a strong segregation of duties for the users by defining access rights for different users.

Using “Organization – (Masters) Roles, Access Rights” view, user can create different roles, assign users to the roles, and set different Data Access Controls and the Document Process Controls for the roles.

Access Controls define the view level access control the user is granted : View Documents, Create Documents, Delete Documents

Document Controls define what the user is allowed to do with a document that he has access to : Close, Confirm, Re-Open, Approve, Undo – Approve

Below is an example of process flow on how to set an “Invoicing Clerk” role and define which access and document controls this role can do, for example in processing a sales order:

Samooha icon2  Admin create new user role

Samooha icon2  Admin assign users to the user role.

Samooha icon2  Admin set system features access level for the user role

Samooha icon2  User create new sales order and confirm the document

Samooha icon2  User re-open a (confirmed) sales order and try to delete the sales order

Samooha icon2  Admin remove delete access for user, User try to delete the sales order and fail
