Reporting and security

For security, the reporting feature is controlled by specific access control mechanisms.

The following access control mechanisms exist:
  • Application access control settings. Whether users can run reports from the IBM® EMM interface depends on the permissions that are granted by the IBM EMM application access settings. Additionally, for Campaign, eMessage, and Interact, you can grant or deny access to groups of reports based on their folder structure on the IBM Cognos® system.
  • Marketing Platform access control settings. Whether an administrator can customize the schemas or run the Report SQL Generator depends on the permissions that are configured for Marketing Platform.
  • IBM EMM authentication. You can also configure the IBM Cognos BI system to use IBM EMM authentication, thus controlling access to the HCL application data from the IBM Cognos system.
