How is Security Access for PolyData SA Tables Determined?
Authorization to access the new Student PolyData tables is based on on-line access to the PeopleSoft Student Administration system. In order to determine who has access to the PolyData tables, the tables are mapped to on-line panels within PeopleSoft that contain the same type of information. Based on this mapping, the security tables from PeopleSoft are brought into the data warehouse to get the list of users authorized to view the corresponding Student PolyData tables. This information is then processed to grant the appropriate security access within the data warehouse.
