MMCC STANDARD USER SECURITY / LOGON SYSTEM


The SS System Security file is used in several of our packages. Originally we used the same general concept but coded the specifics into each system. A few years ago we began to convert that to a standard set of routines that will work in any of our packages.

The security modules are built as INCLUDE units and a PLFORM which are stored in the SUNDB folder. We will not go into details here for the sake of (what else) security. The modules are documented in the code.

Security is optional. When enabled, you can set system level security or "store" level. This covers multi user systems.

Security can be set at both the user and the port level. Port level security enables you to limit what a particular port can do. For example, you could say that the port out back i nthe shipping department does not have permission to update files regardless of who is logged on or what their security level might be.
