Appx has an array of 10,000 yes/no settings ranging from 0000 to 9999. Access to protected processes, files, fields, etc. within Appx is can be secured by setting a value in the security field, usually accessed from the Toolbox/Security selection, of the item you wish to protect. When a user accesses a protected object Appx looks at the corresponding element in the yes/no settings. If the table contains a Y the user can access the process/data/function. If it is set to N then access is denied. A security profile is the definition assigned to a particular group of 10,000 value settings.
Any user not an Appx administrator must be assigned a security profile. Multiple users may use the same profile, such as a PAYROLL profile for the Human Resources department, or a AP profile for all payables clerks.
