Entity Permissions (Master Data Services)

Applies to: SQL Server - Windows only Azure SQL Managed Instance

Entity permissions apply to:

  • All of the entity's attributes, including Name and Code, for both leaf and consolidated members.

  • All of the entity's collections.

  • Explicit hierarchy memberships and relationships.

When you have permission to an entity, you can add and remove members from the entity, its explicit hierarchies, and its collections.

Note

These permissions apply to the Explorer functional area of the user interface only.
