Create/Modify Epicor User Security without having Security Manager Access.

Is this possible to create a user which can change/modify another user access without having security manager access to him?

I got this question in one of my YouTube videos comment and I’m very glad to answer it because it’s a very good question:

Actually, the “System Management” Menu in Epicor standard can only be access by “Security Manager” and you can check this in the menu maintenance screen by checking the security of the “System Management” Menu. The security ID which assigned to “System Management” uses for other menus as well so I prefer to not break the access of that security ID unless you know what you are doing.

The easy and safe way in my opinion to apply that is the below:

-          Create A new security group.

-          Give it only for all users you want to give them access to create/modify users in Epicor.

-          Create a new sub menu under “Main menu” and create a new security ID and allow access for the above created group.

-          Assign the new created security ID to the above created menu.

-          Create a menu item under the above created submenu and link it to UserAccountEntry library.

Now, login with a user which you added to the above security group and you will see a new menu for security access. Try to use another user which not added to the above group and you will not see the menu.
