Default Database and Cube Functions - 10-03-2005 , 09:58 AM






Hello,

I create a Database and Cube functions that allow to view only 1 of 3 members
(My Dimension is Enterprise, and the function allows to view only 1
Enterprise)

When I put TEST FUNCTION all goes well. But when I use MS Excel (2003) to
view is the function is implemented, I view all members of the dimension, in
stead of only 1.

I tried to assign this to my account, to a group and for user ALL, and still
not work.

Can you help me? Thanks.

If your user account is in OLAP Administrators, then security does not
get evaluated. You will always have access to every member in every
dimension.

And another thing to remember is that if the user is a member of multiple
roles then the resulting allowed set is the UNION of the permissions from
the various roles. Here is a sample thing to show you with FoodMart. Create
three roles: one which can only see USA, one one Canada, one only Mexico.
You will notice a user in all three roles can see everything.

A common role in a cube is the Everyone role which allows everyone to see
everything. You might want to check and ensure that it isn't present in your
cube.
