Key Points
- describes how to set up the user to see the “query” only page or “edit” entity page by using User Roles and UserAction in Manifest.
- The below example demonstrates where "Finance" users in "query" only mode on OMS data and "CustomerService" cancel orders and other user actions.
Steps
Create a new user Finance and assign to ROLE: FINANCE_USERS role
Create a new user Customer Service and assigned to ROLE: CUSTOMER_SERVICE_USERS role
In my app reference setting (fc.mystique.manifest.oms3), include 2 fragment manifests, finance and customer service
In the customer service fragment manifest setting, apply CUSTOMER_SERVICE_USER into the roles:
For each page that requires user action, set the action:TRUE:
Login in as customer service user:
The user will only see the screens with roles include CUSTOMER_SERVICE_USER:
In the order page, the user action buttons are showing for customer service user
For finance manifest fragment, include the ROLES: FINANCE_USER
In this fragment, ensure all action is FALSE as the finance user is read only.
Login as finance user:
Only manifest fragment with role FINANCE_USER are displayed:
In the order detail screen, there are no user action buttons:
Result
By using User Roles and Manifest action:TRUE/FALSE, we can control user visibility.
