HR68


HR68.1 - HR Writer Data Item Security

Use HR68.1 (HR Writer Data Item Security) to assign security levels to data
items accessed by the HR Writer that are not defined in HR10.1 (Data Item
Attributes). Topics E1 through E8, EP, and DM are maintained in HR10.1 because
you can assign attributes other than security level to the data items for
those topics.

When you run HR170 (HR Writer Report Request), or HR70.1 (HR Writer Inquiry
Request), the user's Data Item Security Level, defined in HR09, is compared to
the security level attached to each data item.

Security level values range from 1 to 9,1 being the highest security level
and 9 meaning no security.  If the security level of the data item is less
than the user's Data Item Security Level and is not blank, the item does not
display.

If the security level of the data item is equal to or greater than the user's
Data Item Security Level or is blank, the item displays. A user can view all
fields with a security level equal to or higher in numeric value than their
Data Item Security Level.

For example, a user with a Data Item Security Level of 5 can view all data
items with a security level of 5 through 9. That user cannot view data items
with a security level of 1 through 4. If left blank, the Security Level field
defaults to 9.  If the Data Item Security Level is not defined for a user, it
defaults to 9.

Refer to the Human Resources Procedures Manual for more information on
security levels.
