Is it possible to enable row level security for a specific report? We are currently doing cost center level for our financial reports but there is one report that does not go into as much detail where end users are supposed to see all costs.

Hi Domenic,

we allow all users to see supplier related costs and information on the Cost Source object but have row level security for all other rows here. The implementation of RLS looks like this:

The first condition is for Cost Centre owners. The second is for IT leadership, finance and the TBMO. The last condition basically allows any user to see any row in Cost Source where "Is Vendor = Yes".

This can potentially impact your other reports where you do want RLS, as vendor costs will "bleed" between cost centres. We have advised  these users to ensure they use report slicers to stop unwanted costs coming into their view.

Cheers Mark

Domenic,

Here is some information on row-level security for TBM Studio. I'm not sure if that is the product you are asking about.
