Prevent users logged in at one facility from viewing cargo lots for another facility in the complex

The Cargo Lots view (on page 1) displays all the cargo lots that exist in N4 and fall within the Horizon (days). However, you can prevent the users logged in at one facility from viewing the cargo lots for another facility in the complex.

To prevent users logged in at one facility from viewing cargo lots that exist at other facilities within the complex:

  1. In the Roles view, create a new role or edit an existing role to include the Cargo Lot - Deny Unfiltered view (CARGO_LOT_DENY_UNFILTERED_VIEW) privilege.

This privilege is applicable only if the user has at least the Cargo Lot - View privilege to access the Cargo Lots view.

  1. In the Users view, assign the role that you created/edited in step 1 to the users who should not have the permission to view the cargo lots for other facilities.

  2. In the Cargo Lots view (on page 1):

  1. Define a filter that restricts the records displayed in the list view based on the Inbound BL Item Vessel Visit Facility field.

  1. Save the filter and associate the user role (created/edited in step 1), for which you want to restrict the access, with the saved filter. For more information, see Saving the list view as a filter in Navis N4: Basics.

Now, when users with the new role log into N4, they can view only the cargo lots filtered by the facility at which they are logged in. In addition, they cannot see the following options in the Saved Filter menu in the Cargo Lots view:
