Hi Amar, it's not clear what you want.

If you are using a simple table and want to hide to column, in chart properties -> Presentation tab there is an option to hide columns.

How to hide (ma the column data (not entire row) for GDPR compliance.

Following is the example

Suppose there is sales department with following data

SalesPersonName	Phone	City	SalesAmount
A1	123	C1	10000
A2	3433	C1	15000
B1	675	C2	50000
B2	654	C2	80000

If the salesperson from City C1 acess the dashboard then the salesamout(10000,15000) corresponding to City C1 should be visible and the sales amount of the City C2 should appear as '***'

If the salesperson from City C2 acess the dashboard then the salesamout(50000,80000) corresponding to City C2 should be visible and the sales amount of the City C1 should appear as '***'

Also, when Pivot is created then the count of SalesAmount Column for both City should be 2 (due to '***' it should be counted as 1) irrespective of the City of login user.

There are multiple controls in dashboard, so control level is very difficult. I want to do this at data level (or when the dashboard is accessed by the user)

I must admit that I fail to understand what this has to do with GDPR compliance. SalesAmounts are not considered information that relates to an individual. Moreover, you seem to be less concerned about the information that may ID an individual like a telephone number. Maybe it's a less than representative example, but you should also have a chat with your data protection officer first.

If it's the information itself that should be partioned into sets with different access/visibility-settings, then I fail to understand why you want to hide it behind a series of password-like stars, and not just eliminate a part of the information altogether if a particular SalesManager shouldn't have access to it. Section Access, combined with Data Reduction is ideally suited for the latter. And on top of that, it's not too complex to implement and easy to manage without changing anything except for the data (e.g. your data) that controls Section Access.

Or am I missing something?

Thanks for your reply.

Section access will remove the rows or omit the columns

I want to display all rows and hide (show 'Prohibit') in the columns data which is not applicable to the logged in user.

Take a look on this: Mask or de-identify data for certain users using Section Access

I have tried this. This works perfect at my desktop but when deployed and access from Access Point it does data reduction instead on masking data.

The example Marcus pointed to works for me on both Desktop and Server.

When I login using ADMIN I able to see 7 rows.

When I login using userB I able to see 7 rows (userB.jpg).

But when I login using userA I able to see 10 rows (userA.jpg). The data for userA gets doubled

Please suggest, if I am missing anything
