User Permission Configuration
User permissions define the offers, order types, and file formats, an EBICS Client user can process on EBICS Client.
One of the following permission types can be assigned to a user:
- Signer
- A signer can only sign an order, but cannot submit it.
- Submitter
- A submitter can submit an order after the designated signer or signers sign the order.
The following table provides information about the authorization
levels that can be specified for an EBICS Client user.
Authorization level | Permission type | Description |
---|---|---|
E | Signer | Single signature. It is the strongest authorization level. |
A | Signer | Primary signature |
B | Signer | Secondary signature |
T | Submitter | Transport signature. Transport signatures are not used for authorization of bank-technical orders, but for authorized submission to the bank system. |
If the electronic signature value is set to 1, then a single signature
of E or A authorization level is required to process an order. If
the ES value is set to 2, then a combination of E or A and B is required
to process the order. ES value is set to 0 in case of key management
orders.
Note: EBICS specification does not permit a combination of
two secondary ES authorization levels (that is authorization level
B) for processing an order.
