You can
restrict developer access to the record definitions, menu definitions, page
definitions, and so forth that make up your applications. Just as you use
Security to control who can access the PeopleSoft pages in your system, you use
Definition Security to control who can access and update PeopleTools
definitions
There are
two tasks involved with definition security:
•
Creating
definition groups.
•
Linking
definition groups to predefined permission lists.
Definition
security leverages the permission lists created in PeopleTools Security to
restrict access to individual PeopleTools database definitions created using a
PeopleTools designer utility, such as PeopleSoft Application Designer or
PeopleSoft Tree Manager. Definition types include all of the definitions that
appear in the following table. Most definition types are created in PeopleSoft
Application Designer.
