OLAP data roles and permissions

You cannot migrate OLAP Permission Management (OPM) roles from Repository Administration to Infor d/EPM data roles. You must create them again using the Data Roles dashboard in d/EPM Administration.

Note: Before migrating the OLAP database, create the roles in d/EPM Administration and use the same names that were used for OPM roles in version 11.0. Otherwise, the access cubes in the OLAP database synchronize the _GROUP dimension with an application that does not contain any roles. That would delete all permission values in access cubes.

You have two options:

  • Create new data roles in d/EPM Administration manually. Select Dashboards > OLAP > Data Roles to create OLAP data roles.
  • You can use Application Engine for bulk-creation of data roles, including assignments to users and groups.

    See "Security functions" in the "Application Engine" section.
