Rule derived element level security

Post by tosca1978 »

First of all apologies if my question has already been answered on another thread - I did check but couldn't find what I was looking for. I have also read the article: Changes to TM1 Application deployment and rights-saving in TM1 10.2.

I'm on v 10.2.2 with fix pack 5.

The issue:

I have a TM1 Web application (contributor style) deployed via Performance Modeler. It contains cube views of 2 different cubes. One cube has the elist dimension in it and the other cube does not - this is by design. The cube that does not have the elist dimension in it has a dimension called "Hierarchy" which has element level security. The first few level of the dimension are identical to the e-list.

When I apply static security to element within the Hierarchy dimension the test user can see the elements that they are supposed to no problem.

When I apply rule derived element level security to the Hierarchy dimension it does not seem to register - the test user cannot see any elements with rule derived security.

I have tried the following:

- Written the most simplistic rule (targeted one element and one security group) to test and get the same results, to eliminate my rule being overcomplicated
- Added feedstrings and fed the rule derived cell
- Checked that there is no Cell Level security cube for the cube in question
- Refreshed security by right clicking the TM1 server, Security and then refresh security)

Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong would be most welcome.

Does it work in Architect/Perspectives when the test user logs in ?
