Create Orchid EFT Roles

In Sage Intacct, you need to create at least one User Role and add the role to the users who need access to EFT Processing.

Refresh the browser

After installing and updating the security, close the browser and log back into Sage Intacct.

If you don't force the refresh, it can take a while for the Orchid menus to display.

Steps to create Roles and Subscriptions

The default EFT Security role will be created and assigned to the Sage Intacct internal user who imported the Orchid_EFT.xml file.

After importing the module, you can check the security in Company > Admin > Roles ::SYS::Enterprise-ROLE-FOR-Module: Orchid EFT. Check Subscription > Permissions and Role Assignments > Permissions.

You need to assign this Security Role to all other users who need to access EFT processing.

Notes:

The default role created when you import the EFT Module as an internal user is SYS:Enterprise-ROLE FOR Module: Orchid EFT.

You can also create new security roles for EFT.

Step 1. Check / create security role

  • Select “All” for Objects, Actions and Menus and Save

  • Double check by re-opening the Role \ View Subscriptions \ Permissions and re-save if necessary

  • You can choose Roles > Role Assignment to see which users are assigned to the EFT Role.

Step 2. Assign Security Role to users

  • Select Company \ Users from the Main Sage Intacct Menu

  • Select the User \ Edit \ Roles Information and add the required role.

Step 3. Log out to refresh roles

You need to log out of Sage Intacct and back in for the new roles and permissions to take effect.

Note: Closing the browser is generally not sufficient to refresh the permissions.
