Databases Reference
In-Depth Information
Developer access can easily be controlled with standard access level settings and a
typical developer never needs access to more than the database he or she is working
on at that time. The database designer level provides the developer with unrestricted
access to the Application|Database you have created for the project. The database
designer will be able to modify the outline, create and run calculation scripts, and
create and run data loads using load rules. There is also an optional setting to allow
the database designer the ability to grant new user accesses and reset passwords on
the database(s) they have their designer privileges on.
In the previous screenshot, we see the sub-screen
App/Db Access,
which is a tabbed
screen selection reached from the
Create User
screen. As we mentioned earlier,
this is where you can quickly add broad developer access at the database level.
The options are few but sufficient for the type of user or developer you are granting
access for. We will discuss in more detail, specific user access control, including the
use of security ilters, later in the topic.
