Description

Hi, 

A big complaint from our end users is when it comes to OTBI there is too many Subject Areas to choose from and the majority of subject areas they will not have access to anyway.

It would help our users significantly if we could tick a box to filter (or change text red) out all the Subject Areas that the User does not have access to (due to lack of licence).

Thank you for your time

Use Case and Business Need

Business Benefit:

- it would save significant frustration from end users not knowing what Subject Areas they can choose or not

- it would save end users a lot of time

- increase OTBI adoption rates

- it will help end users understand the scope of their role within Oracle

- it would help users and business planning in terms of how they need to spread their licences to ensure the end users get full access to the data they require

    Agreed, would be a nice enhancement that can easily be implemented by checking the module status in Functional Setup Manager.

  • Agreed - not a good user experience. We've just gone live with Payroll, so only a hand full of subject areas are relevant but have to search through a long list.- I've been going to Manage privileges and changing the permissions to "deny" . Bit of a painful task but this works. However, gets reset when next patch is applied

  • It will improve the user experience.
