TM1 Security

Post by Lakshmi »

Hi All,

In our TM1 environment we have a cube "ABC" for which I have read access (including dimensions).
There a TI process which is responsible to load the data into the cube "ABC". I am having read access to this TI process, can I execute the TI process to load the data into the cube "ABC" though I am read access to the cube.

Thanks& Regards,
Lakshmi

Yes.

Having read access to a process means you can run it, even if this process does something you normally couldn't do due to lack of privileges.

You will need to write code in the Advanced Tabs of your TI process if you want to prevent 'locked' objects from being written to/ updated during process execution.

You can work out which client is logged on, and which groups they belong to, but this is relatively taxing and requires programming knowledge and knowledge of your security set up.

Thanks,

Dan
