As the service administrator or security administrator, one of your initial tasks is to ensure that users have appropriate access to use Oracle NetSuite Analytics Warehouse.

Users need access to objects and data. Access to objects include subject areas or elements of subject areas such as folders and attributes, key metrics, workbooks, and the legacy Oracle BI Enterprise Edition dashboards and answers. You grant access to the users by assigning groups to them. The groups inherit the permissions from the application roles including the licensed roles (from release Platform 23.R4) mapped to them.You set up your security components on the production environment.

The enhanced security capabilities available from release Platform 23.R4 enable you to use the licensed application roles corresponding to the existing licensed groups made available in this release onwards. You can assign the licensed application roles to your custom groups. These licensed application roles are mapped by default to the existing ready-to-use licensed groups and are associated with the system roles. When you assign these ready-to-use licensed groups and custom groups to users, then the applicable users get the system privileges such as consumer, author, and administrator. You can continue to use the existing security capabilities till Oracle NetSuite Analytics Warehouse automatically applies them as part of the release 24.R2. These changes are mandatory and you can schedule the update sooner to enhance the security of your application.
