5 Generic RLS Policies
1. TENANT_ISOLATION_POLICY
- Purpose: Multi-tenant data isolation
- Usage: All tables with
tenant_idcolumn - SQL Function:
apply_tenant_isolation_policy(schema, table, tenant_column) - TypeScript:
applyTenantIsolationPolicy(pool, schema, table, tenantColumn)
2. USER_DATA_POLICY
- Purpose: User-specific data access
- Usage: Tables with
created_by,assigned_to, orowner_id - SQL Function:
apply_user_data_policy(schema, table, user_columns[]) - TypeScript:
applyUserDataPolicy(pool, schema, table, userColumns)
3. READ_OWN_DATA_POLICY
- Purpose: Read-only access to own data
- Usage: SELECT-only restrictions
- Template: Available in SQL (manual application required)
4. WRITE_OWN_DATA_POLICY
- Purpose: Write access to own data
- Usage: INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE restrictions
- Template: Available in SQL (manual application required)
5. ADMIN_BYPASS_POLICY
- Purpose: Admin access for support and management
- Usage: All tables requiring admin override capability
- SQL Function:
apply_admin_bypass_policy(schema, table) - TypeScript:
applyAdminBypassPolicy(pool, schema, table)

Usage Examples
TypeScript
import {
applyCompleteRlsPolicies,
applyCompletePoliciesForSchema,
withRlsContext
} from '@erp-suite/core';
import { Pool } from 'pg';
const pool = new Pool({ /* config */ });
// Apply to single table
await applyCompleteRlsPolicies(pool, 'core', 'partners');
// Apply to multiple tables
await applyCompletePoliciesForSchema(pool, 'inventory', [
'products', 'warehouses', 'locations'
]);
// Query with RLS context
const result = await withRlsContext(pool, {
tenantId: 'tenant-uuid',
userId: 'user-uuid',
userRole: 'user',
}, async (client) => {
return await client.query('SELECT * FROM core.partners');
});
SQL (Direct)
-- Install functions first
\i apps/shared-libs/core/database/policies/rls-policies.sql
-- Apply policies
SELECT apply_tenant_isolation_policy('core', 'partners');
SELECT apply_admin_bypass_policy('core', 'partners');
SELECT apply_complete_rls_policies('inventory', 'products');
-- Apply to multiple tables
DO $$
BEGIN
PERFORM apply_complete_rls_policies('core', 'partners');
PERFORM apply_complete_rls_policies('core', 'addresses');
PERFORM apply_complete_rls_policies('core', 'notes');
END $$;
Benefits
1. No Duplication
- 5 RLS functions previously duplicated across 5+ verticales
- Now centralized in shared-libs
- Single source of truth
- Easier to maintain and update
2. Consistency
- All modules use same policy patterns
- Easier to audit security
- Standardized approach across entire ERP
- Reduced risk of configuration errors
3. Type Safety
- TypeScript interfaces for all functions
- Compile-time error checking
- Better IDE autocomplete
- Catch errors before runtime
4. Testing
- Comprehensive examples included
- Migration templates provided
- Easy to verify RLS isolation
- Automated testing possible
5. Documentation
- Complete API reference
- Usage examples for all scenarios
- Troubleshooting guide
- Best practices documented
Migration Path
BEFORE (Duplicated in each vertical)
apps/verticales/construccion/database/init/02-rls-functions.sql
apps/verticales/mecanicas-diesel/database/init/02-rls-functions.sql
apps/verticales/retail/database/init/03-rls.sql
apps/verticales/vidrio-templado/database/init/02-rls.sql
apps/verticales/clinicas/database/init/02-rls.sql
Each vertical had:
- Duplicated helper functions
- Similar but slightly different policies
- Inconsistent naming
- Harder to maintain
AFTER (Centralized)
apps/shared-libs/core/database/policies/
├── rls-policies.sql # SQL functions and templates
├── apply-rls.ts # TypeScript API
├── README.md # Documentation
├── usage-example.ts # Working examples
├── migration-example.ts # Migration template
└── CENTRALIZATION-SUMMARY.md # This file
Verticales now use:
import { applyCompleteRlsPolicies } from '@erp-suite/core';
await applyCompleteRlsPolicies(pool, schema, table, tenantColumn);

Next Steps
1. Install SQL Functions
cd /home/isem/workspace/projects/erp-suite
psql -d erp_suite -f apps/shared-libs/core/database/policies/rls-policies.sql
2. Update Vertical Migrations
Replace duplicated RLS code with imports from @erp-suite/core:
// Old way
// CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION get_current_tenant_id() ...
// New way
import { applyCompleteRlsPolicies } from '@erp-suite/core';
await applyCompleteRlsPolicies(pool, 'schema', 'table');
3. Remove Duplicated Files
After migration, remove old RLS files from verticales:
apps/verticales/*/database/init/02-rls-functions.sql
4. Test RLS Isolation
Run the examples in usage-example.ts to verify:
ts-node apps/shared-libs/core/database/policies/usage-example.ts
5. Update Documentation
Update each vertical's README to reference centralized RLS policies.
Quick Reference
Apply RLS to All ERP Core Tables
import { batchApplyRlsPolicies } from '@erp-suite/core';
const erpCoreTables = [
{ schema: 'core', table: 'partners' },
{ schema: 'core', table: 'addresses' },
{ schema: 'inventory', table: 'products' },
{ schema: 'sales', table: 'sales_orders' },
{ schema: 'purchase', table: 'purchase_orders' },
{ schema: 'financial', table: 'invoices' },
// ... more tables
];
await batchApplyRlsPolicies(pool, erpCoreTables);
Check RLS Status
import { getSchemaRlsStatus } from '@erp-suite/core';
const status = await getSchemaRlsStatus(pool, 'core');
status.forEach(s => {
console.log(`${s.table}: RLS ${s.rlsEnabled ? '✓' : '✗'}, ${s.policies.length} policies`);
});
Query with Context
import { withRlsContext } from '@erp-suite/core';
const records = await withRlsContext(pool, {
tenantId: 'tenant-uuid',
userId: 'user-uuid',
userRole: 'user',
}, async (client) => {
const result = await client.query('SELECT * FROM core.partners');
return result.rows;
});
