Abstract
Extensibility tools are provided to customers for defining custom restriction rules for enhanced access controls. In an example method, a listing of restriction rules available for a business role are presented. The restriction rules include predefined restriction rules and at least one custom restriction rule placeholder, wherein the predefined restriction rules are delivered with the enterprise software system the at least one customer restriction rule placeholders are associated with a link to custom code developed as a customer-specific restriction rule. A selection of a particular custom restriction rule is received and associated with the particular business role. When evaluating the restriction rule, the custom code and a set of master data defined in the custom code is accessed to determine restrictions for each of the end users associated with the business role. A set of access objects are derived for each user based on the information.
