VBFORM limit access to certain users

Up


I would like to send a warning message to myself when BOM changes.
But I would like to do it not every time but when somebody except me
does the changes. The global alert works fine. It send e-mails, but
I
would like to limit the number of these messages.

Has anyone tried limiting access to any vbform by user? It seems
whenever the vbform is used, everyone has access to it.

What we are trying to do is approve packing slips prior to shipping.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Haven't tried anything in Vantage 8.x yet, but in 6.x I've been able to call a .P procedure on form entry that checks the Vantage user ID accessing/opening the VBForm and if its not a valid user execute an external application to automatically close the VBForm. A bit complicated, but its one way of limiting user access to VBForms.

Has anyone tried limiting access to any vbform by user? It seems
whenever the vbform is used, everyone has access to it.

Dean,

I have the same issue, I did contact Epicor on Dec 4th and only response
was they will contact me once there is a patch. Obviously I'm still
waiting. Thankfully, so far I have seen the customization of VB forms by
users only affect their login.

Keith

Michael,

We're using 6.10, I am very interested in how you did this. This would
work for us!

I created and compiled the visual basic program to close a VB Form.

The program and instructions on how to use it can be downloaded from http://scary.sytes.net/software/CloseVBForm.zip.

Michael,

I tried to implement your technique for global alert file, but it
errors out at me. The file is located in different folder though:
MyMappedDrive:\mfgsys61\ud. Is it possible to get UserID for global
alert?

Global Alerts and VBForms are two separate items. With VBForms, Vantage provides a vb.i file as a include file with several functions for retrieving/updating data. (I have added several more that epicor hasn't included but are very useful with VBForms.)

VBForms are run at the user workstation where the BAM's (and I believe Global Alerts also) are processed by the Process Server. What are you specifically trying to do with UserID and Global alerts?
