Note: | This topic does not apply to Essbase native security mode. |
After provisioning users for Essbase applications in Shared Services Console, you can assign access permissions to users and groups for a specific Essbase application and database. For example, after assigning a user access and a role for the application, you can assign an Essbase filter to the user, or assign the user access to a specific calculation script. The Shared Services Console displays Essbase-specific screens that allow you perform these tasks.
When you assign database calculation and filter access, you automatically log in to Administration Services and Essbase as the Shared Services Console logged-in user. This user must be a valid Essbase Administrator, Application Manager, or Database Manager. The user must have the Provisioning Manager role for the appropriate applications.
Note: | The calculation scripts and filters must be created using Essbase. |
For information about how to provision users in Shared Services, see the Oracle Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management System User and Role Security Guide.
