About Site Filtering in Probability Distribution Analysis

In Probability Distribution, the site is assigned based on the user's selection in the Site control, but the data for the analysis can be generated by a query that contains records from multiple sites.

Note: Reloading the data will re-run the query, limiting the results displayed to the data points based on those to which the single-site user has access.

Analyses that are created for a single site and that are based on a query containing multi-site data will contain multi-site data. A single-site user with access to the analysis can open the analysis and view all of the multi-site data in an analysis.

Note: Probability Distribution does not create a link between the analysis and the asset(s) in the data the analysis is based on.

Hint: To prevent analyses from being modified by other users, save the query on which the analysis is based to a personal or private folder.

Example

Consider an organization that has three sites, Site X, Site Y, and Site Z. The following Probability Distribution records exist:

• Probability Distribution A: Assigned to Site X
• Probability Distribution B: Assigned to Site Y
• Probability Distribution C: Assigned to Site Z
• Probability Distribution D: No site assigned (global record)

Scenario 1: User assigned to only Site X

This user will see Probability Distributions A and D.

Scenario 2: User assigned to both Site X and Site Y

This user will see Probability Distributions A, B, and D.

Scenario 3: Super User

This user will see Probability Distributions A, B, C, and D.

IMPORTANT: If a Super User modifies the site assignment of a child record from the site assignment that it inherited from a parent record, data integrity will be compromised.
