Managing Pass-through Configuration

Pass-through enables users to log on once to EPM Workspace and access their reports’ databases without additional authentication.

As the administrator, you can provide transparent access to databases for foreground jobs and for Interactive Reporting documents by enabling pass-through globally. When pass-through is enabled globally, item owners can enable or disable pass-through for jobs and Interactive Reporting documents.

  To define pass-through settings:

  1. In EPM Workspace, select Navigate, then Administer, then Reporting and Analysis, and then Pass-through Configuration.

  2. Select an option:

    • Use users’ login credentials for pass-through—Enables pass-through using the user’s logon credentials which include Password and Confirm Password fields

    • Allow users to specify credentials for pass-through—Enables pass-through using the credentials the user specifies in Preferences
