Hi,
I am a little confused about one aspect of security on AX cubes.
I understand that the the Roles on the cubes pretty much match the Roles in Role Centre and I can see that they have been preconfigured with relevant access to certain measure groups / diminesions
I also understand that we can change these to match our own requirements.
The piece I dont quite get is how the permissions work when you are in AX (role centre or std menu's) and are running std reports over the cubes (e.g. Top X Vendors by YTD).
Should the connection be set up with your windows profile or via a service account?
If with your windows profile, then does that mean we have to make sure that the users are in the correct Roles on the cubes?
or do you set all users up to have access to the cubes and assume that AX security will conrol the access?
If all users are set up, then that means that all users will have access to all cubes if they go in via Excel.
