Section Access: Data reduction problem

Wed, 05 Sep 2012 13:38:02 GMT

Hi All,

I am putting the following section access code in my QV file

Section Access;

SQL SELECT UPPER(username) AS NTNAME,

case UPPER(username) when 'ST12\ARIF' then 'ADMIN' else 'USER' end AS ACCESS

FROM [DTV].dbo.users;

Section Application;

Then I load the rest of tables. The tables are interlinked as following

The problem is that the branches, desks etc are visible to users based on data reduction (Consultantdesk table), but data in other tables are not visible to any users. Is it because the section access is joined to consultantdesk table but not directly linked with other tables? What is the problem with my logic?

Regards

Arif

I don't see a fundamental problem within your schema. Is it possible that NTNAME "John" does not have links back to the rest of the data?

Hi Aaron,

You are right. Those users did not have any linkback to other tables data. I have resolved this now. Thanks
