Application Data Security

Defnition security is a form of data security.We use it to control access to particular rows of data (object definitions) in PeopleTools tables.

PeopleSoft also provides other methods to control the application data that a user is allowed to access in the PeopleSoft system. This task is also known as setting data permissions.With application data security, you can set data permissions at the following levels:

1.Table Level(Querry Security)
2.Row Level (SQL View)
3.Feild Level (People Code)

Table Level Security:
Table level security is implemented by using Querry security.
We can restrict the permissions to the users in accessing the tables while running and building the componenets

We can do this by creating querry acess group in PeopleSoft Tree manager and then assinning the users to those groups with PeopleSoft querry security.

PeopleSoft Query security is enforced only when usingPeopleSoft Query because it doesn’t control runtime page access to table data.

Row Level Security:
It can be implementd using SQL view's.
It controls the access to individual rows of data stored within application database tables
It enables the data of a particular user is permitted to access.

Field security:
Field level can be implemented using People Code.
Field security use people code to restrict access to particular fields or columns within application tables.
