Hello, everyone. I'm new to this forum.

I need to implement data source(row/column level) security. I did a search on manual and found that I could implement it using Access and Restrict attribute.

My question is whether I can implement it with GUI settings, in other words, without editing a code on Master file, etc.

Thanks,
Matt.

Matt,

The synonym editor has a section for DBA security. You can use that to edit your row/column level security.

I find it easier to do it by hand. But you can do it that way if you prefer.

When in the synonym editor under the metadata ribbon bar there is a link to do DBA. Once you click it it displays in the lower right hand corner.


Thank you for using Focal Point!
