How to give planners read only access to Planning cube for ad-hoc analysis?

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to issue smartview reports to the planners. Most of the reports are coming off Essbase (reporting) application. However, we have to generate one report from planning server because of the text fields. Currently, on planning server, planners have access only to the forms. They dont have access to the planning cube. But to make them able to refresh this report, we need to give them access to the planning cube.
But we dont want them to do ad-hoc data write on planning cube. So my question goes like this - Is there a way for planners to have write access on the web forms but only read access to the cube through samrtview ??

The access permissions will match between planning and smart view if a planning connection is used.
Cheers
John

  • Give user Read-Only access to one table in a database.

    Does anyone know how to give a user account Read-only access to 1 table within a SQL Server Database using SQL Server Management Studio? I don't want the account to be able to access any other tables in the database, just the one table. I'm not a sql programmer,
    so if there is a way to do it in Sql Server Managment Studio settings that would be the best.

    Using Management Studio, I assume you already have a login and user for that person. If not,

    1. Then, in Object Explorer, expand the Database, expand
    Tables, right-click the table you want, and then click
    Properties. 
    2. On the Permissions page, under Users or Roles, click
    Search, then Browse, etc, until you find the user. Click
    OK until you are back to the Permissions page.
    3. In the Permission for <user>section, find the
    SELECT (that's the read permission) and click the Grant
    box. Then click OK.

  • How to configure Mailbox Read-Only access for Mailbox's owner on Exchange Server 2010?

    I have to configure the Exchange Server 2010's mailbox to only grant Read-Only Access on the mailbox's owners.  So they can only allowed to read their messages and cannot modify or remove them.  Are there any references or methods to do?

    Hi,alexchy8
    We can make use of 2 PowerShell commands to achieve this goal.
    Add-MailboxPermission and Add-MailboxFolderPermission.
    Execute the Add-MailboxPermission command to delegate the read permission at mailbox level.
    Execute the Add-MailboxFolderPermission command to delegate the required permissions on specific folders inside the mailbox.

  • Give the read only access to user on Apps Schemas!

    Hi,
    How we can create the database user and give the access on APPS schemas(INV, PO etc).
    Please assist me.
    Thanks,
    Faziarain

    Dear Hussein,
    I followed anil passi forum for creating apps read only schema , but only issue is we have multiorg enabled .
    what is the modification dowe need in this step.
    Step 4
    Write a after logon trigger on apps_query schema. The main purpose of this trigger is to alter the session to apps schema, such that the CurrentSchema will be set to apps for the session(whilst retaining apps_query restrictions).In doing so your logon will retain the permissions of apps_query schema(read_only). Howerver it will be able to reference the apps objects with exactly the same name as does a direct connection to apps schema.
    conn apps/&1 ;
    PROMPT CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER xx_apps_query_logon_trg

    Sourav

    Hi sourav,
    If you want to give read access to the developers with regards to configurations details of the system or application modules and resources then this would be best accomplished through the use of NWA(Netweaver Administrator). Here you should be able to create a user and give them read only access.
    You can access it via http://hostname:5<system number>00/nwa of you Web AS Java.
    You can use the SAP_JAVA_NWADMIN_LOCAL_READONLY role or the central read-only role depending on your needs and configuration.

  • Read-Only Access to Specific SAP tables

    Is it possible to grant a user read-only access to a specific table or tables?
    For example, say I wanted to give someone SE16N capability for just EKKO/EKPO/EKBE and NO OTHER tables.  Is this possible?  How?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    as it was mentioned the transaction SE16N checks for authorization object S_TABU_DIS. The problem in your case is that the tables EKKO, EKPO and EKBE are already assigned to the authorization group MA - MM Appl. table. But there are many more tables assigned to this group. Changing assignment of standard tables is not a good idea.
    Cheers

  • Read only access to J2EE related tools

    Hello,
    I would like to help our auditors access everything they need to check in the Java systems, but I am not ready to give them ADMIN accounts. That`s why I need some kind of read only access for them.
    So I would like to ask you if there is a SAP Note about the read only access roles for J2EE/ Java AS?
    I am afraid there is no such note available, so can anybody share any experience with granting read only access to the Java system? I know how to grant access to the whole NWA, but what about the rest?
    Examples:
    - is there a way how to grant read only access only to the UME?
    - is there a role for read only access to the portal PCD?
    - is there something similar for KM access?
    Or has anybody ever tried to split the admin roles into smaller pieces? Is there a description/ document how to do such thing?
    Thank you for your time and effort,
    cheers Otto

    Hi,
    thanks for trying, but I can use help.sap.com and was on that page before.
    Maybe if there were any examples there or better: if the whole thing would be more granular (I see no point in using roles starting with SUPER, containing ADMIN or ending with ALL). I am looking for roles for surgery or for auditing. I don`t want to give anybody these super/admin/all roles just like that.
    If you can suggest how to use that page, that would be cool. Otherwise I see no use.
    By the way: another question of mine about surgery: How to restrict access to download/ upload UME configuration file
    I would like to know how to controla access to this specific feature, nothing else.
    Thanks for the time and effort,
    cheers Otto

  • Read only access for objects in application designer

    I want to apply read only access to all the objects in application designer. I would like to know how we can do this.
    Jayaprakash Tedla

    Jayaprakash,
    On 8.48 :
    1. Create a PERMISSION LIST
    1.1 leave empty the navigator homepage
    1.2 leave unchecked Can Start Application Server? and Allow Password to be Emailed?
    1.3 On Pages tab, leave it empty
    1.4 On PeopleTools tab, check Application Designer Access, then click on Definition Permissions, Tools Permissions Miscellaneous and Permissions, and put there the rights as well as you want. You can put Read Only on all component in one shot by clicking on the button, or one by one by choosing in the listbox for each type of components.
    1.5 leave all other tab blank
    2. Create a ROLE, and add the permission list created on step 1.
    3. Create the user, and give the role created on step 2.
    4. Open Application Designer, connect there with the new user, and enjoy on read-only access.
    Hope this help,
    Nicolas.

  • Istore User read only access

    Hi All,
    Can you please tell me how can we create read only users to istore (R12).
    is there any possibility to provide certain users with a read-only access?
    We have a number of internal staff & sales people across the business who have requested access to Istore. As this is for retailers and people placing orders against live accounts that interface into Oracle ,we want to give only read access to certain users.
    Thanks in Advance.

    hi,
    You can refer below document for what are the permission assigned to a user for displaying place order button and check out button.Using CRM HTML you have to create custom roles and assign permission to custom roles ,then you have to assign this role to that user doesn't need place order button.
    You have to create Custom roles like XX_READ_ONLY_USER and assign the permission for this user for istore.
    After select user management, search for the user and assign the custom role to the specific user.
    IBE_CREATE_ORDER
    Allows a user to submit a quote or cart as an order by pressing the Place Order button. If a user has this permission, ensure that he has the IBE_CHECKOUT permission as well, since without IBE_CHECKOUT the user will not see a Checkout button to enter the checkout phase.

  • Read Only Access to Storage Container

    Is it possible to give Read Only access to a particular storage container without adding someone to Subscription and providing them the access key without anonymous request without going through SAS route

    By default, a container and any blobs within it may be accessed only by the owner of the storage account. If you want to give anonymous users read permissions to a container and its blobs, you can set the container permissions to allow public access. Anonymous
    users can read blobs within a publicly accessible container without authenticating the request.
