Examples of Data Access Set Security

This example shows a data access set that secures access by using primary balancing segment values that correspond to legal entities.

Scenario

The following figure shows a data access set for the US Financial Services Ledger. The access set type is Primary Balancing Segment Value, with each primary balancing segment value representing different legal entities. Read-only access has been assigned to primary balancing segment value 131, which represents the Insurance legal entity. Read and write access has been assigned to primary balancing segment values 101 and 102, which represent the Banks and Capital legal entities.

For this data access set, the user can:

• View the journals, balances, and reports for primary balancing segment value 131 for the Insurance legal entity.
• Create journals and update balances, as well as view journals, balances and reports for primary balancing segment value 101 and 102 for legal entities Banks and Capital.

Note: In financial reporting, the list of ledgers isn't secured by data access sets when viewing a report in Preview mode. Users can view the names of ledgers they don't have privileges to view. However, the data from a secured ledger doesn't appear on the report.
