Add the CA SDM Privileged User to CMC

The universe connection is configured by default to use the Service Desk Privileged User and Password when accessing data. This user should be added to the CMC as a new CA Business Intelligence user. There are two purposes for adding this user. First, you need this user if you plan to set up data partition security for reporting and second, it allows you to use this user when initially testing reports from the CA SDM Reports tab. The Reports tab requires a user who is defined to both CA SDM and CA Business Intelligence.

Use the instructions provided in the Implementation Guide to add your CA SDM users to the CMC and configure the CA SDM Privileged User account.
