Improved Security Visibility

When users encounter Batch Steps or Data Grid columns that they are unable to access or update, confusion can derail normal workflows. Better visibility into why that data is inaccessible can help get those users the information they need to get back on track.

  • Batch Steps that are not accessible for the current user will now display the Shield icon. This access is controlled in Menu Security.

  • Data Grid columns that are normally editable but set to read-only for the current user will now display the Shield icon. This access is controlled by Database Security.

Check out the help topic on Data Grids for more information on how to interact with your Cirrus data.
