RE:[peopletools-l] PeopleSoft Definition Security

AFAIK, Definition Security is still used in 8.50. For example if I pull up one of the delivered Security Queries (PT_SEC_PLIST_CREF), I get the message "This query is marked as read-only. The save button has been disabled. (139,215). IMO, this is due to my access via Definition Security.

As Queries cannot be manipulated from App Designer, I would say PeopleSoft pushed the use of Definition Security for queries out to the Query Tool and PIA.

And I believe you need the proper Definition Security access to the Security Queries to access them online in the Common Queries component.

But as mentioned by others, the PIA security is generally handled via the Query Security trees.

Subject: PeopleSoft Definition Security

We are trying to limit a selection of available queries to a user (through online Query Viewer). We have created a definition group with only the queries that we want the user to run. The group is connected to the primary permission list (as read only) of the user. It does not work as expected. The user still "sees" and can run all public queries when accessing query viewer. Is it possible to limit the queries a user sees and is able to run with definition security when accessing query viewer or is there another way that this could be accomplished?
