Saving Workbook

[sunilv_dev]

Is there a way available to prevent user from saving existing standard workbook after execution of a report on top of same.

I habe a workbook with specific filters and drilldown and saved in a role. As a user, after execution of the workbook, I changed few columns and drilldowns. I do not want to ne able to save the workbook I changed on existing workbbok.

How can I do it

simple ... give users create authorizations but not change authorizations on workbooks. But the downfall is that you might have too many workbooks floating around...

otherwise use a naming convention like

X* would mean a standard workbook and z* would be a user defined workbook and give authorizations to the same. I know this option works for queries but have not tried out with workbooks since they do not have the option of giveing a technical name for a workbook but then am assuming that you can give authorizations to save a workbook under specific technical names.

Else create some roles which have display only which will have the standard workbooks and the user cannot save the workbooks under these roles...

What authorization objects are available which will prevent users from changing the existing workbooks or saving workbook on the top existing workbook?

Hi,

Try with the Authorization Object "S_RS_ERPT" - Business Explorer - Enterprise Reports.

Object S_RS_ERPT is used for report authorizations and not for the workbooks

Give the user only the display/execute authorization for the workbook.

This can be controlled in S_RS_COMP and S_RS_COMP1 authorizations.

Auth objects S_RS_COMP & S_RS_COMP1 are used for query and query elements and not for the workbooks

Does anyone know what is used to control so that users cannot just change the workbook I have set up in roles for everyone?

Thanks
