How to provide profiles changing access to a non admin users in Sage X3

By | January 6, 2024

All users play a very critical role in Sage X3, also it has a feature where we can set a permissions and access to a particular user.

The need to restrict users to access ERP Modules can be based on the employees’ role and their department. User security and access should be the top most priority as there is a lot of data involved in it. By providing limited rights, access and  Security controls, we can control data corruption and data leakage, which is very much necessary for x3 system. 

Thera are few important points which are main by doing the restriction process.

  1. Menu Profile.
  2. Function Profile

Menu Profile: Sage x3 provides a very useful feature called menu profile which can be defined in users screen to restrict the users to access all modules, screen, and reports in Sage X3.  We can create a menu profile for example: ”Administration”, “Setup”, wherein we will only add Administration and Setup Module related screen and report and that profile can be assigned to a particular set of users.

Function Profile: Sage X3 provides another feature called function profile, which can be defined in the users screen to restrict users based on their function. In this case we can create an access code let’s say “TEST” and add this access code in function profile to give access function type for the users.

Now we will see how we can give admin access rights to change the profiles to non admin users . Follow below steps

Steps:

  1. Create new user who don’t have access rights to all modules.
  2. Assign the new menu profile and function profile to the new user which have only specific modules access.

Navigate to: Setup -> users -> users

3. Now login with TEST user and try to modify/change user’s function profile through user screen, you will get below error.

To resolve this, follow below points:

  1. Login with Admin user or that user who have full admin rights.
  2. Now go to Setup -> Users -> users.
  3. Search TEST user from left list and select it.
  4. Now go to its parameter tab.

Test User -> Parameter tab-> AUZ -> parameter search -> AUZFCT -> AUZFCT -> enter *

5. Now save the screen.

6. Now logout from the admin user .

7. Login with Test user.

8. Now go to users and change its function profile in Setup -> Users screen.

After doing all the above steps, non admin user can modify/ change the profiles without any error.
