Adding authorization objects to Report Painter reports

Former Member — Tue, 24 Oct 2006 20:27:46 GMT

Hello Everyone,

Is there way to add authorization objects to report painter reports ? I know it is possible to add auth group at the header level but I need to limit access at run time to specific objects, say for example, Cost Center. Is this possible ?

I have seen the Get_Reporter.pdf document and it seems to discusses adding auth group but not auth objects.

Thanks in advance.

Dorothy

If you have Cost Center as one of parameters/attirbute then user can only access data for that particular cost center which he/she is authorized for.
