Currently we are implementing SAP BI 4.1 and we have the following situation concerning our webi document authorization.
We have approximately 30 groups with users and 120 webi documents.
The 30 groups all have privileges to a different set or group of documents from the total set of 120. There is overlap so we cannot create folders for all the different sets of documents because then we need multiple copies of those documents used by more than one group. We also don't want to set rights on individual documents, only (document)set based.
In BO XI r2 we created a group for each individual document. Authorization to the documents was done by membership of those documentgroups. However this creates unwanted loops in the groupshierarchy.
The use of categories seems the correct way to go but unfortunately when we use promotion management every once and a while the links between documents and categories are removed.
Anyone, some idea on how to accomplish this kind of authorization (apart from the use of categories)?
