Securing General Case Operations

A user's ability to perform general case operations is set up as part of system administration using function security. General case operations that are accessible from the client include registering a person and creating a case, approving a case, and suspending payments.

Function security governs user access to all functions accessible from the client application. A user's ability to perform case operations is governed by the user's security role, security group, and the security identifiers assigned to the operations during system administration. This data is set up in a hierarchy. The user's security role is the top level of the hierarchy, the user's security group is at the second level, the security identifiers and case operations, which are defined by function identifiers, are at the third and fourth levels respectively.

The hierarchy includes the protected resources that a user can access such as functions, fields, products, assessments, outcome plans, investigations, and appeals.
