Restricting a user to a specific site

By | October 1, 2013

Normally user security is very crucial feature of any ERP, and if we take X3 as an example we are aware that it functions on Site basis. Thus security or restrictions at site level is a must and this blog explains this feature.

We have explained restriction feature of a user from accessing other sites and also from viewing the transactions of other site. Well, this can be done by following couple of steps that are mentioned below.

Step 1:

  • Navigate to Common Data -> Miscellaneous Table and select table 60.
  • Add a record SIT (You can use your own name) (refer below screen shot). Make sure the record you are adding doesn’t exist.

Step 2:

  • Navigate to Setup-> Users-> Function Profiles and create a new profile and under Sites tab select the site and the module for which you want to assign restrictions to user.

Step 4:

  • Navigate to Setup-> Users-> Users and under Roles tab assign the role to respective user. You can assign various sites here as per your restriction.
