Installation
Please read more in the individual release notes listed here.
Overview
Use the Security Rights Audit Report to generate reports about access and permissions for users, groups, or objects. You must have the appropriate permissions to generate these reports.
Report Types
You can generate the following types of reports:
| Report Type | Description |
|---|---|
| 1. User vs Object permissions | Shows each user’s permissions for objects. |
| 2. Groups vs Object permissions | Shows each group’s permissions for objects. |
| 3. Users vs Primary group | Lists users and their primary groups. |
Special Character Handling: When creating new objects in TeamConnect, special characters are allowed in object names. However, if an object name contains any of the following characters:
- \ / : * ? “ < > |, these will be replaced with an underscore (_) in the file name when generating a report from the Security Rights Audit Report module.Managing Parallel Report Generation Requests
When two users attempt to generate a report simultaneously:
- Both users will be directed to the "Generate Report" wizard.
- If one user clicks the “Finish” button after the other, an error banner will appear, notifying them that "Report generation has failed because another report generation is currently in progress. Please CANCEL the report generation wizard until the current report is complete."
- To proceed, the user must click the “Cancel” button, which will redirect them to the home page.
- On the homepage, the "Latest Report Info" block and the "Export Status" field will display an "In Progress" status.
- Additionally, a "Stop Report Generation" button will be available.
Important Note: Before initiating report generation, ensure that audit logging is checked. If audit logging is enabled, generating a report will quickly fill the log file and cause significant file size growth. This can impact server storage and may lead to performance issues. For more information, refer to the Audit Logger.
