BI upgrade

[Former Member]

Hi,

We are upgrading from BW 3.5 to BI 7 Analysis Authorizations.

In BW 3.5 the security is implemented at Info Area level using the authorization objects S_RS_COMP and S_RS_ICUBE.

Using the analysis authorization concept, can we implement restrictions at the info area level. I know that we can use

0TCAIPROV - to restrict the authorization to InfoProviders. Can we use the same for restricting at info area level.

Thanks,

Neha.

In BI7 to protect Infoarea the objects are S_RS_COMP and S_RS_COMP1

Hi

In the characteristics for Info providers "0TCAIPROV" you can maintain the hierarchy for Info areas. This would give access for all the info providers within a specific Infoarea.

However you also need to restrict the access for Info area through objects S_RS_COMP and S_RS_COMP1.

Thanks.

Hi Neha,

You can use S_RS_COMP and S_RS_COMP1 in roles for Infoarea restriction. In the Analysis Authorizations also, you can use the characteristic 0TCTIFAREA for giving specific Info Area Values.
