ChartField Security
What Is It and It’s Value
• ChartField Security controls data entry and inquiry access based on Chartfields
• Enable ChartField Security for all products or selectively by product.
• Enable for products where data entry security is critical but allow open access
to other features.
• Disable for products where access is already limited to a few authorized endusers.
• Allow or disallow access to transactions and ledger information when rules
conflict.
• Supports Super User access to minimize setup for some individuals or roles.
ChartField Security
Implementation Recommendations
• Analyze your organizational policy regarding data access.
• Determine the best level for implementing ChartField Security
• End-user level – granular level but high maintenance
• Role – addresses larger groups of employees and lower maintenance
• Permission List – addresses groups of employees with same permission
list providing lower maintenance.
• Identify exceptions
• Perform set up, create rules, assign rules and build rules prior to
enabling security.
• Determine the appropriate person to serve as administrator for setup
and on-going maintenance of security rules.
• CF Security can be a substitute for KK Security.

Approval Framework for PO and Req
Upgrade Considerations
• Is your current business process and for approvals sufficient, or is it
time to change?
• Do you approve POs if they have already gone through Req or
contract Approval? Do you re-approve change orders?
• What, when changed, requires re-approval?
• Who are your approvers? Dynamic or static?
• Do you want to add reviewers to the Approval Process?
• Take advantage of line level approval?
• What are your approvals based on? Amount, category, etc
• What kind of notifications?
• How do people approve? Email or worklist? Mass approval?
• What kind of „change reasons‟ would you use?
• When to implement – at Go Live, or at a later date?
