3. We also made no changes in the
Row Filters
tab when we created the
Read
Only
user. As a result, the permissions that were assigned apply to the entire
model. By assigning a group to our
Read Only
role, that group would be
able to use our entire model in their analysis.
4. Let's add a filtered role that only allows the role to see data related to a
specific sales territory, that is, Central. This territory is defined in the
Sales
Territory
table. Once again, you open the
Role Manager
dialog. Add a
new role named
Central Sales
. Assign the
Read
permission to the new
role, and add your filtered user to the
Members
area.
5. Now, you double-click on the
DAX Filter
cell by Sales Territory. You get no
help at all. So, you will need to create the filter by hand. Add the following
filter to the dialog:
=[SalesTerritoryRegion]="Central"
You need a DAX formula that will return a
Boolean
value . In this case, the
formula tests the name of the region and sets the result to
TRUE
or
FALSE
.
Note
In order to create this formula, I created it as a calculated member in the
model. This allowed me to verify the results and the syntax. Once I was
done, I removed the column.
