Change a Profile's Permissions

You can change the permissions associated with a security profile to restrict access or add access to models.

Note: The db_owner of the database always supersedes any security CA ERwin MM provides on the mart. If the db_owner is assigned the Viewer profile, it is still able to change security profiles because the db-owner is the mart administrator by default regardless of the profile assigned in the Security Manager.

To change the permissions associated with a security profile

1. Click Security on the Services menu.

   The Security Manager dialog opens.

2. Click Profile.

   The Security Profile Manager dialog opens.

3. Select the profile (for example, architect) and click the appropriate object class (for example, mart),
   • To grant permission to perform an activity, select the permission box.
   • To remove permission to perform an activity, clear the permission box.

     Important! Changing the Guest security profile is not permitted.

4. Click OK.

   The permissions are updated for that security profile.

Note: You must be assigned to the Administrator security profile for the mart to add, update, or delete a security profile. While only an administrator can change permissions associated with a profile, anyone can view the permissions.
