Overview
Security on the view is used to set who has access to the view through the Report Builder, i.e. who can create/see reports based on the view. The three options available are:Unsecure | All users with functional access to the database can write reports against this view. |
Edit restricted | Only defined users will be able to create a report using this view. All other users will be able to read the reports that have been created by authorised users. |
Restricted | Only defined users can read and/or write reports from data in this view. |
Note: these options do not control who can edit the view itself, they only control the Report Builder access to the view.
