Business value

To better secure resources, we're migrating the use of highly privileged System Administrator and System Customizer security roles for our back-end services.

Feature details

We're adding two out-of-the-box security roles that can be used by local system administrators to meet their business scenarios.

  • Service Reader
  • Service Writer

These security roles are managed by the system and cannot be updated by the local administrator. These roles have read access to all out-of-the-box tables, including custom tables. The Service Writer role has create and update privileges to all out-of-the-box and custom tables.

The privileges of any custom tables (existing and new) are automatically granted to these roles.

For updates, go to Predefined security roles.
