EXPORT IMPORT SECURITY UTILITIES

The ExportSecurity utility exports Planning access permissions to the SecFile.txt file, enabling you to export and import access permissions across applications

The ImportSecurity utility loads access permissions for users or groups from a text file into Planning.

HYPERION_HOME/products/Planning/bin

To execute the ExportSecurity command, open a command prompt and navigate to the directory containing the ExportSecurity command.

Limit the export by specifying a member parameter.

Successful initialization of Planning Application:

The ExportSecurity utility automatically creates the SecFile.txt file, from which we can import access permissions.

The ImportSecurity command will import the security contained in the secFile.txt.  Using the command prompt, navigate to the directory containing the ImportSecurity utility.

The syntax used to execute the utility is:

ImportSecurity.cmd “Application,username,SL_COMMA,,,”
