What are record security definitions?

A Record Security Definition is made up of one of more Record Filter Definitions, which automatically filter access to records in the Navigator when a user is logged in. Once the Record Security Definition is created, you can apply it to one or more Security Profiles, which can be assigned to a user.

 

To create a record filter definition

1. Navigate to the Record Filters Definitions window.
   Go to Cintra iQ: System Administration> Record Security> Record Filter Definition
2. Select the desired Data File.
3. Click the New button. The Create Record Filter Definition window appears.
   
4. Enter a Title.
5. Continue to create an expression.
   
   

     Note:

   Creating an expression in the Create Record Filter Definition is the same process as in Filters, except that selecting a Category is not an option when creating a Security Record Filter Definition. For more information, see Creating Record Filters.  

6. Click the OK button. The definition is created.
   
7. Continue to create the definitions for each of the Data Files.
