Set a Permission Condition (OLAP)

Permission conditions limit explicit grants of the Read permission, so that different users access different subsets of data.
  1. Access the Authorization tab of the dimension for which you are defining a permission condition.
    Note: In SAS Management Console, you can access dimensions on the Plug-ins tab under Authorization Managerthen selectResource Managementthen selectBy Locationthen select<server>then select<OLAP schema>.
  2. Select or add the identity whose access to measures you want to limit.
  3. In the permissions list, add an explicit white check box grant of the Read permission for the selected identity.
  4. Click the Add Authorization button, and then define a condition that filters the data as appropriate for the selected identity. For detailed assistance, click the Help button in the dialog box.
    Note: If the Edit Authorization button is displayed, a condition already exists for the selected user or group.
Note: To manage permission conditions for information maps, use SAS Information Map Studio.
Note: To manage permission conditions for OLAP dimensions, use SAS OLAP Cube Studio, SAS Data Integration Studio, or SAS Management Console.
