The Security Model in IDF

By applying security to an object, you can control which users can view the object and which users can create, change, delete or copy the object.

Basic object security allows you to control who can display or maintain an object. Advanced object security allows you to control selectively who can create, change, delete, or copy an object.

In the basic model, all of the maintenance activities are permitted to those users who are authorized to maintain the object. Use the basic security model if you want a user who can change an object to also be able to create or delete the object. Use the advanced security model if you need to restrict some users to changing the object but not creating or deleting the object.

You can create new macros in the Infor LX Configurable Enterprise Financials CEA107. 

On the Macro Definition window, you define the source file and the field in which you perform an arithmetic or special operation. For example, you can create a macro to accrue sales commission based on revenue. Your source file and field are the Invoice Line History (SIL) file and the G/L revenue (ILREV) field. 

Select Functions to access the Macro Functions window, on which you define the arithmetic, character, or special operation to process against the defined source field. In the previous example of accrued sales commission, you enter an arithmetic operation of multiply (*) and an operand value for the percentage, such as 0.05 for five percent. 

Note:  Previously created user defined macros will have to be updated to include any expanded field sizes in V84.
