Enhancement Request for User Roles in IBM Planning Analytics

Dear IBM Planning Analytics Team,

I am writing to propose an enhancement to the user roles within IBM Planning Analytics. Currently, administrative roles in IBM PA possess comprehensive privileges across all aspects of the system. However, this level of access can present challenges in maintaining strict control over sensitive areas, particularly concerning security settings.

Enhancement Proposal:

I would like to suggest the introduction of a new role type within IBM Planning Analytics. This role would retain all the administrative privileges necessary for system maintenance and user management, except for modifying security settings in specific databases or modules. This segregation of duties would help ensure that critical security parameters are only altered by fully authorized personnel, enhancing our overall security posture.

Benefits:

- Increased Security Control: By restricting access to security settings, we can prevent unintended changes that may compromise the system's integrity.

- Enhanced Compliance: This role would aid in compliance with internal policies.

- Flexible Administration: Administrators can still perform necessary tasks without the risk of affecting sensitive security settings.

Thank you.

Regards,

Tomáš
