Default Blinding Access Type

This setting controls the default blinding status of data available to users.

Users' privileges also determine which data they can view. The Definer's own privileges determine which values he or she can set. The possible settings include:

  • NA/Dummy Allows users to see all data in Table instances whose Blinding flag is set to No and the dummy data in Table instances whose Blinding flag is set to Yes. If all Table instances mapped to Business Area Table Descriptors have their Blinding flag set to No, this is the only option available.
  • Real(Unblinded) If all Table instances whose Blinding flag is set to Yes have a Blinding status of Unblinded, and if the Definer has the Read(Unblind) Business Area Instance operation on the Business Area instance, the Definer can set the Default Blinding Access Type to this value. In these Table instances, users with the necessary privileges can see the real, unblinded data. Users without these privileges must explicitly select the NA/Dummy blinding access type or else they will not be able to see data in the Business Area at all. All users can see all data in Table instances whose Blinding flag is set to No.

Note:

The adapter can allow users with Blind Break privileges on all Table instances whose Blinding flag is set to Yes and whose Blinding Status is set to Blinded to select the Real (Blind Break) option, regardless of the Default Blinding Access Type. All blind breaks are audited.
