Controllling data access of users at the universe level

building semantic layer
#1

Hi,

I had a doubt in universe regarding the implementation of security. We are using BO XI R3.1

Existing process: We had a portal called flex (intranet site)which the BO report has been integrated and for opening the report the name of report was clicked (hyperlink)

This report should show the data specific to the user profile logged into the portal.

Now if we want to restrict the data at universe level for each individual users accessing the report in portal our idea is to create a dervied table (which contains a list of userid’s and project id’s)in universe so that who ever logged into the portal and clicks on report he will see the data only related to profile

For example: The scenario would be a manager residing in a region need to see the list of projects which he is assigned to but not all of them.

Could you please let me know how can implement at universe level. Kindly suggest a better approach with details and also pls let me know if you need any futher information.

Thanks,
Eswar
