WebFOCUS Open Portal Services Enhancements
by Gil Rodriguez

With WebFOCUS 7. 7.02, Information Builders introduced some enhancements to WebFOCUS Open Portal Services, such as the ability for administrators to control WebFOCUS reporting tools access for end users and for developers to administer the report component.

Controlling WebFOCUS Reporting Tools Access

The ability to control WebFOCUS Reporting Tools access originally was introduced in our WebFOCUS Business Intelligence Dashboard. This feature, now available in Open Portal Services, gives administrators the flexibility and ability to display a subset of the available reporting tools to users until they receive proper training. It also makes it possible to make the necessary changes when the use of a tool is discontinued at a site.

Hi Rakesh,

What is your question about enabling a subset of available reporting tools? Are you looking for documentation, or have you encountered an error when trying to implement it?

Thanks and regards,

Kathryn

Hi Rakesh,

Using the link that Eran provided you in the other topic, expand 'WebFOCUS Open Portal Services Administration Guide', then 'Using WebFOCUS Portal Components', then 'Using WebFOCUS Open Portal Services Components'. There is a lot of detailed information here.

Regards,

Kathryn
