Granting Access to Compound Dimensions

Compound Dimensions are built using two existing Dimensions. One is designated as the Primary Dimension and the other as the Secondary Dimension. According to the option, chosen in the Assign Access from Component Dimension field of the Dimension Editor, Access can be granted from the Compound Dimension itself or from its Component Dimensions.

1. Assigning Access from the Compound Dimension

If the Assign Access from Component Dimension is set to "No" option, the Admin can give Power User Access to the Compound Dimension from the Compound Dimension Editor. Open an Access tab and follow the instructions given in the Granting Power User Access to Dimension article.

2. Assigning Access from the Component Dimensions of the Compound Dimension

If the Assign Access from Component Dimension is set to "Yes" option, the Access tab doesn't appear in the Compound Dimension Editor. In this case, to give the Power User Access to the Compound Dimension, the Admin has to give that PU Access to both of the Component Dimensions. Open Dimension Editors of Primary and Secondary Dimension and follow the instructions given in the Granting Power User Access to Dimension article.
