  • A default data set mapping is now configured at the level of every financial data set.

Data authoring

  • The modification of the description of a Dimension is now possible in the UI of the dimension, previously it was required to open the table 'Description'.

TIBCO EBX™ Rules Portfolio Add-on

The TIBCO EBX™ Rules Portfolio Add-on is now able to manage the EBX® permission rules applied on the services, data sets, tables, records and fields. Two new types of rules are available:
  • 'Access permission rule' to evaluate the access permission on a data set, table, field or record.
  • 'Action permission rule' to evaluate the permission for a service.
    These new types of Data Element Concepts are available to allow the configuration of the permission rules:
  • Service
  • Data set
  • Field
    These new predefined business rules are available to get 'True' or 'False' results directly. By combining this prebuilt assertion rules with the 'Simple expression' configurations, it becomes possible to create new assertions rules based on the fields of a table:
  • Assertion true(Manual validation)
  • Assertion true(Manual validation)
  • Assertion true(Table set)
  • Assertion false(Manual validation)
  • Assertion false(Validation)
  • Assertion false(Table set)
    These new predefined permission rules are available:
  • Hidden service
  • Disable service
  • Enable service
  • Hidden the data set
  • Permission read-only for the data set
  • Permission read-write for the data set
  • Hidden table
  • Permission read-only for the table
  • Permission read-write for the table
  • Hidden field
  • Permission read-only for the field
  • Permission read-write for the field
  • Hidden record
  • Permission read-only for the record
  • Permission read-write for the record
    New services:
  • 'D.E.C. creation': this service allows to create automatically the D.E.C.(s) based on a selected data space and data set.
  • 'Create demo rule(s)': this service creates at set of sample rule(s).
  • 'TIBCO EBX™ Rules Portfolio Add-on migration': this service allows to update a former rules configuration to this new version of the add-on.
