selection.
5. Use the Measures tab to determine the measures to which users with this role will have read access and update access.
All measures for all Categories can be selected or de-selected at once using the Read and Update toggle checkboxes next to the Measures heading.
All measures within a single Category can be selected or de-selected at once using the Read and Update toggle checkboxes next to the Category name.
You can give Read access to a measure or Category without giving Update access. But, you cannot give Update access without Read access. When an Update checkbox is selected, the application automatically selects the corresponding Read checkbox.
Update checkboxes will be disabled if any dimensions related to the measures have their attributes access set to None on the Attributes tab.
6. Use the User Profiles tab to attach the role to a user profile or user profile group.
If you select a user profile group for the role, all user profiles in the group will have that same role.
Only those user profile groups that do not have a role assigned or those where the user profiles don’t have individual roles assigned are available for selection. Also, only the user profiles that do not have a role assigned are available to be selected.
If no user profiles or user profile groups are available for selection, you can save the role as is and attach a user profile or group at a later time via the Role Maintenance, User Profile, or User Profile Group window. You will be warned that the role definition will not be complete until a user profile or group is selected. You can save the role in that state, but it will not be actively used in Stratum.Viewer.
