Access to Calculations

If you have the Database Update user role, you have access to run the default calculation on the cube (from Smart View), and to run specific calculation scripts provisioned to you. If you have the Application Manager or Database Manager role, you have Calc privileges and rights to execute all calculations, and to provision access to execute specific calculation scripts.

To provision users access to execute calculation scripts in the Essbase web interface, first provision the user to that application with Database Update user role, then add the user on the Roles tab in the calc script editor.
