4.1 Using Security Mapping

The mapping of security attributes (business domain, jurisdiction, and report type) to a user (through a User Group) is done through the Security Mappings.

To define the security mappings, follow these steps:

  1. In the Navigation List, select Application Security Administration and click Security Mapping. The Security Mappings page is displayed.
  2. Select the user group of the users from the Select User Group drop-down list to map with the security attributes.
  3. Map one or more jurisdictions to the selected user group. For mapping jurisdictions to the user group, select the required jurisdiction (AMEA, APAC, and so on) and click move to move the selected jurisdiction from the Available Jurisdictions list to the Selected Jurisdictions list. This assigns the privilege to the selected user group to access the reports that belong to the mapped jurisdiction. Click move to reverse the action.
  4. Map one or more business domains to the selected user group. For mapping business domains to the user group, select the required business domains, and click move to move the selected business domains from the Available Business Domains list to the Selected Business Domains list. This assigns the privilege to the selected user group to access the reports that belong to the mapped business domains. Click move to reverse the action.
  5. Map one or more report types to the selected user group. For mapping report types to the user group, select the required report types, and click move to move the selected report types from the Available Report Types list to the Selected Report Types list. This assigns the privilege to the selected user group to access the reports that are mapped to these report types. Click move to reverse the action.
  6. Click Save  save. All the changes are saved in the FCC_SECURITY_MAPPER table and the respective FCC_RR_SECURITY_MAPPER view tables.
  7. Click Reset reset to discard the information you have entered; this action resets the information to its original state.

    Note:

    Saved changes cannot be reset using this option. This is applicable only when you want to edit and reset data.
