Problem customizing usergroups in BI 4.1 SP4

BI BusinessObjects 4.1 SP4

 

I have several folders containing reports that I don't want users to edit the query of or change at all. However, I don't want to change my custom access levels because that would affect all users. And I don't want to apply custom folder security because it doesn't go far enough - I need to be able to block off the Available Objects pane from users who have access to that folder - you can't do that through rights management.

 

Because access to those folders is controlled by one user group, what I have done is apply "Customization" to that specific group to remove the Data Provider buttons and the Available Objects pane; members of this group can now no longer see the Edit button or the Available Objects pane when using reports in that folder.

 

PROBLEM

 

This works well if a user is only in that one group. But If a user is in multiple groups – one of which is that customised group – then the customisation seems to be apply to whatever they have access to, thereby restricting their edit abilities in unrelated folders and reports.

 

How should I change the user security of this group to ensure its customisations are not being picked up by other groups that a user is a member of?

 

Thanks,

 

Andrew
