Disabling Application-Level Security

If you have Application Manager permissions, you can disable security settings for an application. By default, security is enabled, which means that security settings are in effect. When you disable security, Essbase ignores current security settings and treats all users as Application Managers. Application Manager permissions allow complete access to all objects in the application.

When you disable security, you override user-level security settings. There is no database-level equivalent for this action.

To disable security for an application and treat all users as Application Designers:

From Enterprise View or a custom view, select the application.
Right-click and select Edit properties.
In Application Properties , select General.
Expand the Security node.
Clear the Enable security check box.
Click Apply.
