How To Create a Field Level Security Code for Objects

Overview: Field Level Security Codes are used to specify the restrictions applied to objects, fields and controls associated with a particular source table. In this example we will create a Field Level Security Code for source table 18 Customer, which allows for full Edit capability on the Customer Card page object (21).

Currently in our setup we have table 18 setup with the default code of READONLY. All forms and pages using the customer table have only View permission as shown below.

1) In Field Level Security Codes click New, enter source table 18 and code CUSTEDIT.

Answer Yes to the message so that permissions are initially copied from the default READONLY code.

2) Add a line for Page 21 Customer Card, and in General Permission select Edit.

When this Field Level Security Code is assigned to a user, the user will have the ability to edit fields on the Customer Card page but will have only read access to other forms and pages using source table Customer.

The Edit permission in the above example applies to all fields and controls on the Customer Card because we did not specify individual fields or controls. To set permissions at the more granular level, see the following:
