Permissions for Dependent Object Instances

Permissions for Dependent Object Instances

You might need to access an object that contains dependent object instances from another project. If you do not have read permission on the other project, the Developer tool gives you different options based on how you access the parent object.
When you try to access a parent object that contains dependent object instances that you cannot view, the Developer tool displays a warning message. If you continue the operation, the Developer tool produces results that vary by operation type.
The Developer tool does not include options to import from and export to PowerCenter.
The following table lists the results of the operations that you can perform on the parent object:
Operation
Result
Open the parent object.
The Developer tool prompts you to determine how to open the parent object:
  • Open a Copy. The Developer tool creates a copy of the parent object. The copy does not contain the dependent object instances that you cannot view.
  • Open. The Developer tool opens the object, but it removes the dependent object instances that you cannot view. If you save the parent object, the Developer tool removes the dependent object instances from the parent object. The Developer tool does not remove the dependent objects from the repository.
  • Cancel. The Developer tool does not open the parent object.
Export the parent object to an XML file for use in the Developer tool.
The Developer tool creates the export file without the dependent object instances.
Export the parent object to PowerCenter.
You cannot export the parent object.
Validate the parent object.
The Developer tool validates the parent object as if the dependent objects were not part of the parent object.
Deploy the parent object.
You cannot deploy the parent object.
Copy and paste the parent object.
The Developer tool creates the new object without the dependent object instances.
