Permissions
By default, newly created Analytics variants are set to Private, which means they are visible only to the user who created them. If you set the variant to Public during creation, it becomes visible to all users.
If you want to make a variant available only to selected users or groups, you must configure permissions manually.
To manage permissions, you must have Superuser authorization in SAP Business One.
The process consists of two steps:
- Configure permissions in CompuTec AppEngine Analytics.
- Assign permissions to users or groups in SAP Business One.
Add a permission to an Analytics variant
If a variant doesn’t have manual permissions configured, and it’s Public, it is available to all users. To restrict access to specific users or groups, you must configure permissions manually.
To add permissions to an existing Analytics variant, follow these steps:
-
In the Source Manager, select the Source that contains the variant.
-
Navigate to the Variants tab.
-
Enter the edit mode by clicking the Edit icon.
-
In the Basic Settings tab, locate the Permissions section.
-
Click +Add.
-
Click Update to save the added permission.

Before configuring permissions in SAP Business One, note the variant GUID, which is displayed below the variant name. You will need this identifier in the next step.
