Is this possible?

Thanks,

We decided they can find another way to do this. Its too complicated.

Dear MG,

That's quite interesting!

Well, I feel, you could pull all data to BW, and you should design such a way that, authorization is done in BW based on region and not at the datasource level.

If you think more, (according to your proposal - a separate datasource), you would ideally want to have a separate dataflow and hence a separate infocube and restrict that cube only to US citizens. Agreed? I dont think you are looking at that kind of design.

Dear

Designwise, i wouldn't recommend that. Reason being, extractors shouldn't be restricted to do Data Selection. It should be done at the loading level.

What if you have more selections(restriction). You cant have more and more extractors based on restrictions.

The reasoning for this was data restrictions and who can see it. We are trying to ensure only US citizens can see certain rows of data.
