You can define security permissions for individual users and groups. Groups comprise users who share minimum permissions. Users inherit the permissions of the group and additionally can have access to permissions exceeding those of the group.
Permissions can be granted to users and groups in the following ways:
Specifying a user or group type upon creation or by editing the user or group. This method specifies system-level permissions that span all applications and databases.
See Assigning User and Group Types in Essbase Native Security Mode.
Granting permission to access applications or databases.
