Financial Management Security Model

Oracle Hyperion Financial Management roles are assigned to users from the Oracle Hyperion Shared Services Console. Data security can be specified on dimensions such as Entities, Scenarios, Customs. Security is defined for each dimension independently in what is called an Financial Management security class, which defines access rights (Modify, View, and so on) on a specific set of members of one dimension. Usually, security classes are assigned to groups of users. Artifacts (Journals, Web Forms, Web Grids, and Task Lists) also are assigned security classes.

Note:

Security cannot be defined on an intersection of members from different dimensions.

Financial Management uses its own native interface to define data security. It maintains its own repository of data security information. Assigning data security to user and groups is performed using the Shared Services Console.
