Re: Field-level security

["Richard J. Serrano" <rjs@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Martin,

In the security checking process, OS/400 will first check for any private
authorities. In the example you give, if an authority greater than *USE is
required, this first authority check will fail. OS/400 will then go on to
check authorities provided by authorization lists. In this situation, the
user will be found to have authority to the object in question and allowed
to proceed.
