SUPPORT / SAMPLES & SAS NOTES
Problem Note 35778: The %MDSECDS macro returns folder information along with the specified member type
 |  |  |  |
The documentation for the %MDSECDS security reporting macro states that you can use the MEMBERTYPES= parameter to limit the output by object type. This implies that only objects of the type specified are included in the output from the macro.
However, due to the way the object metadata is retrieved, the output will also contain authorization information for all folder objects in the requested objects' metadata folder hierarchy.
If you wish to omit the authorization information for the folder objects, you can work around this problem by further subsetting the output data set, or view by including a WHERE clause similar to the following in the code you use to generate the report listing:
where publictype not in ('RootFolder','Folder');
