Understanding Administrator Reports

Many of the delivered ADS definitions are complex and may include relations, properties, groups, and app class extension to do custom validate, merge, and/or other transforms.. The delivered Administrator reports consist of metadata reports and security reports.

Administrative reports provide information on data sets and are grouped by category. This table lists the delivered categories:

Report Category

Description

Properties

Reports about data set level properties.

Security

Reports about data set level security, and privileged users, and so forth.

Relations

Reports about data set relations and relation properties.

Extended

Reports about data sets containing customized code or reports about data sets containing extended code, such as merge, validation or transform.

Groups

Reports about groups, such as mergeable groups, and so forth.

Language

Reports about language records in data sets.

Access groups are used to determine which records the user has access to in Data Migration Workbench. For delivered data set definitions, it is necessary to add the access groups to the Data Migration page of the appropriate permission list. The ACCESS_GRP_RECORDS report shows the access groups associated with each data set.

Copy and Compare access rights determine the access permission for copying and comparing ADS projects.

Privileged users are users that have full access to upgrade, which allows the user to copy any record without checking the specific authorization for that record.

This table lists the delivered security reports:
