Customize Webi Application for User Group in CMC

BO 4.1 provides a new feature to customize the entire webi application based on the user group. This means we can give access or restrict user group for User Interface Elements, Features and Extensions of webi.  This is really very good feature for those Administrators who wants to give limited access to Users. I will show you how to customize the webi application below:
  1. Logon to CMC
  2. Right click on the user group and select customization option to customize the webi for this user group.

  1. Again select the customization from the left pane.
  2. On the right side we can see three tabs as shown in the picture.
  1. User Interface Elements
  2. Features
  3. Extensions


  1. By default you can see the User Interface Elements tab is selected and all the options are checked.
  2. Uncheck the options you want to hide from the user group, so that the users with in this user group will not be able to see the unchecked  User Interface Elements. This way we can hide the various components of webi from users.
  3. Click Sava&Close.
  4. Now when the user logs in the unchecked options Properties Tab and Page Setup tab are hidden from the users of this user group.

In the above picture Properties Tab and Page Setup tab are hidden.
