Article summary

If a user has read only access for Profile 1 that user can import vouchers into AP and add a new vendor record and a new profile despite profile 1 being set to read only.

Steps To Duplicate:
  1. Log into FIMS with a user account that has read only access to Profile 1 tab
  2. Go to File Maintenance\Accounts Payable\AP Voucher Import
  3. After setting up the import, click import
  4. Note that a new profile record is created during the process
Answer:
If you would like users to not be able to create new profiles when they import AP vouchers, then that user's security should be set up to not allow them to import AP vouchers or have another FIMS user import the vouchers.

You can adjust security for the AP Voucher import in Menu Security. It is an all or nothing setting. If the user's username is not listed, they will not be able to import AP vouchers.
