Re: MAPICS - need info on the AMAPICS user profile

On our system, the Amapics has *all authority to Mapics objects, and
*public has *exclude. I guess it's Mapics way of securing their objects.
Our Amapics only has *jobctl special authority. Not sure why it would need
that, but that's what it has. It uses QDFTJOBD as its jobd.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Mark

Hello List,

I've been using MAPICS for 14 years but never paid much attention to the
AMAPICS user profile.  Could members of this list tell me how you handle
this user profile which on my system has 5 of the 8 special authorities
active.

Our regular users have AMAPICS as a group profile which if I'm correct
adopts these special authorities.  This is not desirable with
Sarbanes-Oxley
scrutiny in progress.

Can a regular user operate successfully in MAPICS without that group
profile?

Can the special authorities be trimmed way back without causing problems?

Any info would help.  Thanks in advance.
