In this case, these codes act a bit like a lock placed on a field in a screen, in a transaction, in a report or in a database record. Following on from this, by defining for each user, it is possible to access protected information in this way (thus they have the key available allowing them to open the lock).
Now you can use these access codes in transaction screens as shown in the figure:
