 How Process-Based Roles Saved our Lives!
Nothing much had changed with our menus and security since we went live on Xe back in 2002. As part of our upgrade, we badly needed to restructure our menus so that we followed the best practice that any menu item must be no more than three clicks away. We also needed a locked-down security structure. This we achieved – on time, and on budget – with the help of the ALL Out roles, menus and security management product.
