Divisional security for Distribution Analytics now supported

You can now enable data level security by division in Distribution Analytics for Birst Content. When divisional security is enabled, users see attribute and measure data sets for only the divisions to which they have access. Divisions are set in each user's SA Operator Setup record in Distribution SX.e.

Feature activation

Enable the divisional security filter for each Distribution Analytics model space in the Birst Modeler 2.0. You must also manually add Infor Ming.le users to the necessary security and exemptions groups in the model spaces where divisional security is enabled. The SXBIRST-Model-Administrator user group is the default exemption group. Divisionalized accounting must also be established for your company in SA Company Setup-Required Settings.

Additionally, a one-time full data load is required for tables where data-level security is enabled. If you do not reload the data, then the security limitations do not apply to historical data. These tables require the data reload:

  • ICSD
  • SASTN
  • APET
  • APSV
  • ARET
  • ARSC
  • GLET
  • GLSA
  • POEH
  • POAPET
  • OEEH
  • OEEL

See the Infor Distribution Analytics for Birst Administration Guide for more information about enabling data-level security.
