User Interface Enhancements for Security

When an MDM administrator creates user role privileges, the privileges affect the Data Director user interface. For example, if a user does not have access to a business entity, that user cannot see the business entity or its records.

The following table summarizes the role privileges for business entities and describes how the privileges affect the behavior of the Data Director user interface:

Business Entity Action	Data Director Behavior
Create records	In the New menu, you can see only the types of business entities for which you have permission to create records.
Read records	You can view the records for the business entities that you have permission to read. Other records are inaccessible.
Update records	In a record view, the Edit button is enabled when you have permission to edit business entity records. Otherwise, the Edit button is not visible.
Delete records	The Delete icon is enabled when you have permission to delete business entity records.
Search for records	When searching for business entities by using smart search, search filters and search results contain only the business entity types that you have permission to view.
Merge and unmerge records	In the Matching Records view, the Merge button and the check boxes at the top of each record are enabled when you have permission to merge and unmerge records. If you add records to the view, the search filters and search results contain records only for the business entities that you have permission to view.

The business entity views inherit the same role privileges as the business entity. For example, if you choose to include a sensitive field in a business entity view, only the users with the role privilege for the record can view or edit it. For information about how user role privileges translate to business entities and business entity views, see the
