If you are using Datatype Security in Vista, you need to configure security to ensure successful integration
between Viewpoint Team™ and Vista.
In Viewpoint Team™ when you perform an
action that writes data back to Vista, it uses the
"vcsWebShared" SQL user to connect to Vista. If you have data
security enabled in Vista, you need to make the "vcsWebShared"
user a member of the default security groups used for the datatype security.
-
In Vista, launch the
Viewpoint Administration module.
-
In VA User Profile, create a
SQL Server user called "vcsWebShared".
The
Vista-Team Connector
installation creates this account.Attention: This user must be a SQL Server user. Windows Active
Directory users are not supported for this use case.
-
In VA Security Groups, add
the "vcsWebShared" user to the associated Default Security Group for each
datatype that is secured.
Depending on your configuration,
datatypes may or may not be secured. Ensure that the "vcsWebShared" user has
access to the bHQCo, bJob, and bContract datatypes.
Tip: To see which associated security groups represent the
default datatype groups, open VA Data Security Setup
and click on the Grid tab. You can view this information while you are
working in VA Security
Groups.
