Defining Multiple Group Security Identifiers - V5.3 onwards

Group Security Identifiers are used by Security Filters

When defining Group Security Filters, as well as the 'Group Name', you can also store multiple 'Group Security Identifiers' against the group. 

1. Edit the group and enter the required operator and the first Group Security Identifier.
   Example:
   
2. You can add multiple Group Security Identifiers here using the  icon. A logical OR will be applied between them.
   Example:
   
3. In the above example, where Group Security Identifiers are in use, the dataset will be filtered for the companies 'Service-Co Ltd' OR 'Trade-Code Ltd' OR 'Mini-Co Ltd' OR any company Ending with 'LLP'
4. The different operators allow for more complex pattern matching rather than the standard 'Equals' operator:
   
   Example 1: Ends With 'Ltd' will return all rows in the dataset where the Company name ends with the text 'Ltd'
   Example 2: Contains 'Co' will return all rows in the dataset where the Company name contains the text 'Co' 
5. Now, edit the user and select 'Group Security Identifiers' as the Security Filter you would like to apply for this user.
   
6. It is possible to also apply Group Name as the Security Filter for the user if preferable.
7. A user can be allocated membership of many groups. When applying Group Security Filters, in addition, each individual group will be processed as a Group Security Filter with a logical OR applied between them i.e. Group1 OR Group2 OR Group 3
8. It is possible to combine User Security Filters With Group Security Filters to create more complex Security Filters. In this scenario a logical AND will be applied between User and Group Security Filters.
