  • How will I know where all the reports of users has access

    Hi gurus,

    We use the Hyperion Financial Reporting 9.3.1 & we have 80 reports & 750 users. How will I know where all the reports of users has access. Where can I find this information. I checked the SSP, it only shows the provisioing details, but not the name of the report. I also checked the Essbase.sec but no use. Where can I get the info. Kindly help me.


    Kind regards
    Kris...

    There is no tool of Hyperion to display easily groups and security filters.

    But it really depends on how you set up your security model.

    Normally, you add users into groups and assign these groups to essbase and reports (via the BEEP groups) cubes, so you can check reports have access to correct group and the users are in a good group.

    There is a security tool to export available here, hosted by Applied Olap, and underground work Olap-based:

  • How were you completely delete a / profile under vista user account?

    How were you completely delete a / profile under vista user account?

    I have a virus on a different user profile, and I just want to remove this profile.

    (ON VISTA)

    Hello

    How to remove a Vista user account - even if you do this, you should check as well
    for malware.
    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/93026-user-account-delete.html

    Even if you do not see the virus on your other profiles, it might be in areas that will subsequently
    cause problems in the other profiles. It would be preferable to eliminate malware from the machine
    that can be done without using the profile infected from an ADMIN account.

    If you need search malware here's my recommendations - they will allow you to
    scrutiny and the withdrawal without ending up with a load of spyware programs running
    resident who can cause as many questions as the malware and may be harder to detect as
    the cause.

    No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy
    to detect malicious software often comes with a much harder to detect and remove the payload. Then
    its best to be thorough than paying the high price later now too. Check with them to one
    extreme overkill point and then run the cleaning only when you are sure that the system is clean.

    It can be made repeatedly in Mode safe - F8 tap that you start, however, you must also run
    the regular windows when you can.

    TDSSKiller.exe. - Download the desktop - so go ahead and right-click on it - RUN AS ADMIN
    It will display all the infections in the report after you run - if it will not run changed the name of
    TDSSKiller.exe to tdsskiller.com. If she finds something or not does not mean that you should not

    Original title: which user account you want to use to run this program?

    I use a computer that is running Windows XP SP3. Recently, when the computer starts first to the top, a window will appear titled ' run as ' the question "which user account do you want to use to run this program?" with two radio buttons. The default selection is "Current user" and there is a checkbox to "protect my computer and data from unauthorized program activity. The other button is for "the next user. I have to click 'OK' before you can run any programs.

    There is only one user on the computer. Why has this window began to appear and can I get rid of him?

    What are the causes of the log of user account on missing cursor in Windows XP? I have two trays of office that they have this same problem. If you restart them the cursor returns?

    Hi DaddyJeff,

    1. don't you make changes before the show?
    2. are you referring to the cursor in the area of user password on the login screen of Windows?
    3. when the cursor goes missing, the mouse pointer works on screen?

    It is difficult to say what is causing this problem. If the mouse pointer freezes or stops working, then we recommend you to reinstall the mouse. To do this, try the following steps:
    a. sign in to Windows.
    b. Click Start, click Run, type devmgmt.msc, and then click ok.
    c. in the list of objects, expand mice and other pointing devices.
    d. right click on the sub element and click on uninstall.
    e. unplug the mouse and plug it back.
    f. the Device Manager, select an item in the list, click the Action menu, click scan for hardware changes.
    g. check if the mouse is detected, if so, then install it.

    See mouse USB which is connected to a USB 2.0 hub is not detected by Windows XP


    Note:
    if the problem persists, restore the computer to an earlier time. See How to restore Windows XP to a previous state
