The main problem I want to fix is employees with boxes checked for their MES security groups (below) aren’t able to use all apps for their corresponding tabs.
For example, an employee is marked as a Material Handler but not all apps under the Material tab are available. Many apps are grayed out (see second and third pictures).
In the new version of MES (Kinetic MES?), the user logs into an account and then logs/clocks in with their employee ID. If the person logs into different accounts but with the same employee ID, the access is different. This wasn’t expected.
Example:
Test employee has these security groups checked: Material Handler, Shop Supervisor, Shipping/Receiving, Production Worker, Warehouse Manager.
Logged-in account is in the Inventory and Logistics security groups.
Logged-in account is in the All Plant Workers security group.
Honestly, I think I messed up menu permissions when I imported them. I set a bunch of things to disallow all because I didn’t realize menu security maintenance contained anything other access to menus.
I’ve set all menu security codes that start with “SECPR” to allow all (the pictures above are post-setting procedures to allow all), but that wasn’t enough. Is there a way to see which MES menu items are associated with which menu security codes?
The easiest fix is to give the account the logged-in account Security Manager access in order to see all the apps for their respective tabs, but giving everyone full access isn’t a long-term solution.
