User Profiles

The Application User Profile is a mechanism to provide a template like configuration for the three major security components of the platform: User Roles (Workflow), Security Groups (DAS) and Functional Classes (ACL / Licensing). In addition to this, a parent/child reference relationship can be established between several Application User Profiles which, in practical terms, means that it can be configured as a hierarchical structure. Several functionalities will depend on this hierarchy. 

This mechanism pretends to enhance the Application User configuration process by drastically reducing the time and steps necessary to perform a proper configuration. Also, it allows a de-centralized Application User configuration management.

Users

Overview

The FreeBalance Accountability Platform has a single sign on functionality which allows Users a single entry point to the system regardless of the modules or functions they have. To manage Users, the Platform has a group of general options which allows adding and configuring Users and their information, authentication rules and rights. This information covers User Code, Name, Default Language, Addresses, Contact Information, Authentication Type, Passwords, and more.

Users are part of Functional Classes and Security Groups which allow or restrict the use of every feature on the system such as screens, reports, etc. This allows a high level of flexibility and customization in the user rights management. The Platform allows the User Role Delegation, it means that there is a super user who administrates users at the high level (centralized) but there could be users with user administration rights for certain Institution, with the same role as the super user, but with limited scope.

User

Overview

To access the application, each User must have a valid unique User code and a password. The User window allows a system administrator or other authorized user, to define user codes and passwords.

There are four Security Dimension types:

  1. COA Restriction: It will restrict the user to work only on certain codes of different concepts of the Chart of Accounts.
  2. Hierarchical Domain: This restriction can be applied on every entity which has hierarchy structure like ‘Institution’ entity; this dimension applied on ‘Institution’ will allow the user that belongs to a certain Institution Unit, where such Institution Unit has more Institution Units related to it, (child, hierarchy) to have access to the entire structure of Institutions that are related to the Institution Unit that the user belongs to.
  3. Domain Restriction: The security group can be restricted to work only on certain elements of a catalogue within certain entity. As an example, in the Procurement Document entity, the user is allowed to work only in Procurement Document Type (‘RFP’, ’EOI’, ‘RFQ’) notice that Procurement Document Type is an entity referenced in the Procurement Document entity.
  4. Literal Restriction: This restriction allows configuring security according to certain values of an entity. As an example, a restriction on the Fiscal Year entity can be configured where a group of users will have read only access to the previous Fiscal Year.

Workflow

Overview

Based on a finite state machine specifically defined for a process or document type, the use of a Workflow Engine address the flow of the documents or processes to the users. The finite state machine that can be modified according to the customer particular needs (e.g. level of approvals required for a Purchase Order), also validating the User Permissions to perform an activity without the need to include this validation as part of the business logic components.
 
The Workflow Engine communicates with the Access Rights component since the Workflow Engine must ensure that the user has the proper access rights to perform the Transition or when the task must be assigned. The Internal Notification Message System is also considered as the communication channel between the Workflow Engine and the users, notifying about task assignments or task current status.

Through this, the FreeBalance Accountability Suite provides:

  • Ability to manage state in a multi-step workflow process.
  • Provide a simple user interface to support articulating and changing workflow.

User Role

Overview

Workflow is a standardized functionality of the FreeBalance Accountability Platform that enhances flexibility to manage transaction lifecycle, enable flexible levels of approvals and generate corresponding alerts. By configuring the workflow functionality, users can, in real-time, modify the system to support their changing business processes without any customization. Users participate in the Workflow according to their User Role. As an example managers can have the User Role ‘Accountability Approver’. The User Role function enables creation of User Roles and assignment of Users to a User Role.
