Assigning control in Shared Services.

Hi Guys,
This is a easy one, i simply forgot. I have a group (example GroupA) with existing users and filters already in place. I would like to add a new user (example UserA) to the group and assign control in Shared Services 11.1.2.1. After adding the user to the group, do I:
a) Search by groupname for GroupA and assign control to it?
or B) Search by username for UserA and assign control to the user?
Silly question but im in a serious brain freeze right now. Thanks in Advance

Are you filters assigned by group or user, if they are by group and you previously assigned them then the filters should already be in place, if it is by user then assign the filters to the user.
Cheers
John

    Hello,
    I installed and configured Oracle EPM 11.1.2 (Foundation, Essbase, Planning, Reporting&Analysis):
    OS: Windows Server 2008 Sp2 (32bit)
    Default Installation with default ports,
    Installation of all components on the same server,
    no clustering
    EPM System Diagnostic says that everything is OK.
    Now I want to assign filter access for an essbase database in the Shared Services.
    Starting the menu item "Assign Access Control" in Shared Services returns the following error:

    Hello,
    here's what I found out so far:
    I get the error if I start the shared services console via the URL "http://servername:port/interop/index.jsp" and then select the "assign access control" for an essbase database.
    If I start the shared services console via the workspace everything works fine.
    Does anybody know what to do so that it also works if I start the shared services console via URL?
    best regards,

  • Assigning database access using Shared Services

    I need to be able to assign security to a specfic database within an application. We have an application that has two databases. I provisioned the necessary group to the correct application to give them access. However, I only want that group to be able to see one of the two databases. How do assign security using Shared Services to provision access to just that database and not the other.
    Thank you very much for your help.
    Info:
    Version of Shared Services - version 9.3.1

    So I am going to answer my own post just incase anyone else is wondering the answer. I found the information right out of the hyp_security_guide.pdf - Security Administration guide. It states that - In Shared Services, if an Essbase application contains multiple databases, the databases must have the same user security access levels.
    This is just my two cents, but I would think this might be something you would consider adding to Shared Services in future releases.

  • Clarification regarding Shared services and essbase security

    Hi,
    Sorry for the silly doubt. We have shared services to manage security, essbase v 9
    1. to assign calc access for users, do i assign calc scripts under databases in group security and assign users to groups in shared services or do it via access control in shared services?
    2. If in shared services i havent given calc access but in eas user belongs to a group with that particular calc script access, which would take precedence?
    Regards,
    N shah

    In shared services, when i click on a particular application under the essbase server under the projects folder, there are cases where there are no users or groups under the 'available users and groups'. Why is this so? groups and users are supposed to be there.
    Also, in a different application, i saw one available user. however when i try to provide calc access. its not changing anything. I select the calc script and then click the check mark. however nothing changes. The calc access for the user is specified as none. When i login to excel with the same user id, i can see all the calc scripts available for the user. Where are the details being picked up from.??

  • Essbase - Shared Services - Maxl - User creation

    Hi,
    I have an issue looking similar to [Automating User/Group creation & Assigning filters in Shared Services|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=1009127]
    When trying to add internal groups to an external MSAD user, I get following messages:
    h3. when adding a group to an external user:
    h6. alter user 'x29027' add 'GR_GROUP';
    Maxl returns:
    h6. Statement executed with warnings.
    h6. User x29027 does not exist
    => the system does not recognize the user
    h3. when trying to create this user first as an internal user
    (based the settings from on another external user)
    h6. create or replace user 'x29027' identified by 'password' as 'i09740';
    Maxl returns:
    h6. Statement executed with warnings.
    h6. A user/group with the same name (x29027) exist at Shared Services
    => the system does recognize the user in MSAD!
    ===> both statements seem to be contradictory!!!
    h3. Other remarks/thoughts:
    - we have two MSAD links (to two different domains), does this matter?
    - no difference when addressing users as x29027@MSAD_FIB (a syntax similar to the HSS security report output)
    - any possibilities in creating a user internally first (using the 'as' option; to copy settings from another user) and then moving to external? (like alter user 'Test_EDR4' set type external;)
    Thanks in advance

    Environment: Essbase 9.3.1.3. with Shared Services

    Hi Erik,
    When you create an user in Essbase, the user will be created both in Essbase as well as Shared Service,
    where as when you create an user in Shared service, the user will not be created in essbase untill you perform refresh.
    In your case you can create the external user in Essasbe by using "Create user 'x29027' type external;'.
    By this you will be creating the user in Essbase and the particular user is recognised in Essbase.
    Now you can add him to any group.

  • How to see a shared services user in EAS Console?

    Hii, I have externalized security for Essbase through shared services, now I created a new user in HSS & provisioned it with Filter, Write option in HSS. Now I refresh the security & want to see the user reflected in EAS console, I want this because I want to create essbase filters on that user. So if I am able to see that user in EAS Console, I can assign different filters to it. Can I do that?

    Make sure you've done this if you have a problem: Re: Oracle EPM System Rel. 11.1.1.2 - Assign Essbase Filter in Shared Services
    Follow John Goodwin's steps in this post: Unable to assign filters in Shared Services
    Note Glenn's comment about sometimes having to assign the filters through MaxL because of issues although I think John's answer in the first post should help a lot.

  • Externalizing Users from Essbase to Shared Services in OEPM 11.1.1.2

    Hi All,
    I have a strange problem like when we installed and configured EAS, Essbase with Shared Services these products are moved to the control
    of shared Services. I know that in EAS after configuration the control moves to HSS, but Essbase control also moved to HSS
    Is it possible for Essbase without using Externalize option to have control from Shared Services
    I didn't use the Externalize feature from Essbase to move the user information to Shared Services
    I need to migrate the users on 7x server to 11x server..Is it possible from 7x as it is not registered with Shared Services
    If not do i have any alternative to get the user/group info from 7x to 11x server.(These are on two different servers)
    Please clarify and let me know if i need to produce more information
    Thanks,

    After you copy the SQL Repository across to the new environment and log in with the owner account, you will be required to register the application with Shared Services. After registering with SS it should prompt you to "Migrate Users and Groups" which will do the migration for you.

    Essbase is on Shared Services mode.
    This is actually very urgent. Would be grateful for any help.

    When I try to right click on the essbase applicaiton in Shared Services to assign access control( to assign a new filter) I keep getting the following error
    " Internet cannot display the webpage" message with the following
    This problem can be caused by a variety of issues, including:

    The website is temporarily unavailable.
    The Domain Name Server (DNS) is not reachable.
    The Domain Name Server (DNS) does not have a listing for the website's domain.
    There might be a typing error in the address.
    If this is an HTTPS (secure) address, click Tools, click Internet Options, click Advanced, and check to be sure the SSL and TLS protocols are enabled under the security section

    The problem is that this behaviour is not a general problem but for a couple of cubes.
