E/C Authorization Group

The System Transaction Codes are displayed with both the Code Names and Descriptions. The Code Descriptions directly illustrate their functionality and role in the system, as fields are populated and tasks are performed.

Available Functionality:

Alternative method of assigning who can authorize an EC instead of the Department/ Division/ Section Option:

Instead applying Department/ Division/ Section restrictions as to who may be able to authorize a step within an authorization process users may now specify who belongs to a particular authorization group, to do so the user will need to set up the different required E/C Authorization Groups via System Transaction Code Explorer.

Set-up is identical to the creation of any other System Transaction Code and there are no embedded functionalities with the EC Authorization Group Transaction Code.

However, now the user may use this System Trans Code to define who is allowed to be part of the authorization process via Engineering/ Explorer/ Engineering Authorization Group Explorer.

Within the E/C Authorization Group Explorer the user will see a complete user/employee listing. Here the user may select the individual and drag and drop them to the particular E/C Authorization Group they want to permit them access for authorization process. Once the user has done so, the following prompt will be received.

If Yes is selected the employee will be included in the authorization group and will be part of the defined E/C authorization process.

If No, then the employee will NOT be included as part of the authorization group and will not be part of the E/C authorization process. Similarly a user may be removed from the Engineering Authorization Group by right clicking on the user’s name and selecting on the Remove User option.

To complete the user removal, select ‘Yes’ to the below authorization group prompt:
