I am a new user of BusinessObjects and I face a problem with the security management.
Maybe it’s very easy, but I’m a student and my teacher don’t explain very well so…
I wish the “Group 1” to have access to a folder, everyone else should not see this folder.
I put the access rights “View” to the “Group 1” on the folder, and they can see it. But when I restrict the rights of the group “Everyone”, they are not able anymore. I assume that is because “Group 1” is part of Everyone…
In fact, I already tried what you’ve suggested Arjun. With this configuration, my problem was that the Group 1 didn’t see any folder at all when he was connected on the CMC, the icon “Folder” was not even visible. Do you know why ?
You need to login to infoview/deski to access the reports/folders with the user.
If you want to see the user from CMC, you need give the access to CMC also[/quote]
Arjun, I still have some problems with the security, it seems that it doesn’t work. Can I join you by mail/msn ? It’s quite new for me and I have some questions
What is the error you are getting? I think you forgot to give the access for the user in various levels.
to Universe connection,
to universe…
Did you give the access for the above mentioned.
I think I found what was missing in fact.
In InfoView, I still wasn’t able to see any folder, connected as a user of Group 1.
Then I try to put “view objects” on the root folder for Everyone, but not applied to sub folders. And my Group 1 was the able to see the required folder.
Did I do the right think ?
ok, Now go to Report folders
select required folder for ex: ABC folder.
Add the group1 at manage user security option,
and give the view on demand/advanced rights for group1.
B.You need to give the rights as follows.
I forgot to say this.
