I am on BPCS 405 CD & I understand that some functions are different on
higher versions, particularly how security works.

You might want to post here what BPCS version you are on, whether these
users are coded as BPCS users or BPCS security officers, and what their
general SYS access is.

BPCS has some rules, then within software from SSA, they have some hard
coded exceptions to what we can do, which I have found out when I wanted to
grant special authority to some users.

The SYS menu option 21 I believe, is what we use to say that only selected
BPCS user profiles have access to SYS functions, and it works for people
who are BPCS USERs (type of user is U) while people who are coded as BPCS
SECURITY Officers (type of user is S) can access anything in BPCS
regardless of rest of their BPCS user profile.

On the BPCS User Profile, I hope you understand it works using Opposites.

Consider Inventory.
We have some people coded NO for INV in general then INV300 down below.
This means the ONLY INV program they can run is inquiry.
A lot of people are like this for BOM300 SFC300 ORD300 & so forth.
They coded not to be able to mess with that application, but can inquire
into its data.

We also have some people coded YES for INV in general then INV900 down
below & a few other exceptions.
This means they can do just about anything in INV but we do not want them
running month end year end stuff or any of the reorganizations.
To a certain extent this can be blocked if they cannot get to the menus
this stuff is on.

We have extremely restricted access to SYS & a few other applications like GLD.
Most of our users are NO for SYS in general, then a very small number of
SYS exceptions.
