you have been advised accurately - this is NOT available in standard BPCS. not sure what to tell you - if this was a serious requirement, you bought the wrong package. you could certainly write some custom apps that preformed INV100 type functions (updates to IIM) and had this extra security built in (starting with a clone of INV100 or from scratch).

Good afternoon,
We are on version 6.1 --- mixed mode. We have identified some cost/price fields that we require to be blank during inquiries by specific users and also blank on standard, vanilla BPCS printed reports again by specific users. Also from a maintenance perspective we require limited capability on a field level basis--- for example: on INV100 we wish to have specific users maintain only certain fields but not have maintenance capability throughout the entire seven INV100 screens. Two SSA HelpDesk employees as well as our SSA technical support expert have advised that there is no field level security within BPCS nor any add-on tools that allow field level security support. We do not wish to modify all the corresponding BPCS programs which utilize these cost/price fields ---- since we will probably eventually upgrade to future BPCS releases. However, they did recommend this forum for feedback. Any suggestions would indeed be appreciated.
