Authorization Manager

Authorization Manager is a part of Valuemation which allows security, protection and business rules to be applied while allowing the efficient tailoring of processes. The Valuemation Authorization Manager allows the administrator to set Default Authorization, Authorizations for Business Objects and Authorizations for Technical Objects and also activate/deactivate the the whole permission management. Together with User Manager, it allows the administrator to tailor the exact type of access the users require.

Access and authorization are always an important issue for any business application. It is essential that users see all the information they require and can carry out their tasks efficiently. It is equally essential to ensure that sensitive information cannot be accessed by persons who are not authorized to do so. Certain operations may be carried out only by certain people. This prevents incorrect transactions whether they are deliberate or accidental.
