Assigning Repositories to Roles - Overview

There may be situations where only certain repositories need to be available to a Role. Depending on how your reports are divided among your Repositories, you may want to only allow a Role to access a single Repository.

For example, if all your Sales Reports are in a certain repository, the Salesman Role would be allowed access to that repository, but might not be allowed to access a repository that contains accounting information.

The Repositories that can be assigned to a Role must be accessible by and assigned to the parent Role. For more information, see the Example of how to Use Role Hierarchy topic..

Notes:

• A repository maps to exactly one CA View, CA Bundle or CA Dispatch system. (See Repository Object for more information.)
• From this screen you cannot edit the Systems Administrator Role. Therefore, to allow the Systems Administrator Role access to a Repository object, you must to add the Systems Administrator Role to the Repository at the edit Repository panel.

For more information about adding a repository to the System Admin Role, see Editing Repository Objects - Owner Roles.
