security when needed,
because the alternatives can
be much more painful.
PeopleSoft row level security is really
not all that complicated. If you
understand database views, then you
can see how PeopleSoft uses views to
limit the data in online searches and
queries. Row level security consists of
several views attached to components,
records, or menus. Although the overall
security package can be intimidating at

should be easy to manage. Dont be
afraid to customize PeopleSoft security
when needed, because the alternatives
can be much more painful.

online use only. Query
security is managed at the
record level. On the record
properties page, look for the
Query Security Record (See
Figure 2). Are the security
views for online security and
query security much different?
Not really. Separate views are
often used because PSQuery
cant handle future-dated rows
very well. In some cases, it
returns duplicate entries.
