Application Scenarios
Industries such as retail and banking have businesses in many cities with identical departments and positions in each city.
It is burdensome for admins to configure permissions one by one when assigning them to the same positions in different departments. In this case, admins can assign permissions in batch according to position.
Functions
Add a Position dimension by modifying the configuration fine_conf_entity. The super admin can assign permissions through Position.

Adding a Position Dimension
Adding a Table Field
The super admin can add a Position dimension through fine_conf_entity visualization configuration plugin. Restart the server to make all the settings take effect.
Configuration | Modification Rule |
FSConfig.authorizeAttr.postAuthority | The value of the parameter needs to be Boolean. The default value is false. false: disable Position dimension. true: enable Position dimension. |
Demonstration
Quick Configuration of Permissions
Admins log into FineBI and go to System Management > Permission Management > Position.
Template Authentication
After enabling Role Permission Authentication, you can select the template needed according to Position.
Reporting Permission
The super admin can assign reporting permission based on Position after visiting http://ip:{port number}/{project name}/decision/workflow/authority.
Examples
Assigning Directory Permission
Admins log into FineBI and go to System Management > Permission Management > Common Permission Configuration > Permission Quick Configuration.
Select CEO in Position, go to Directory Permission > Platform Directory > Business Application, and assign permissions of Sales for CEO.
Assigning Data Permission
The dashboard in Sales includes data in Pareto Data Analysis in Public Data. Therefore, you need to assign data permissions of components in Pareto Data Analysis.
Select CEO in Position, go to Data Authorization > Analysis Data > Data Analysis Model, and assign permissions of Pareto Data Analysis for CEO.
Demonstration
Employees whose positions are CEO can log into FineBI and view the directory Sales and dashboards in it.
Notes
The Rule for Effective Permissions
Because an employee may have multiple departments, positions, or roles and there are hierarchic structures among departments, you need to follow relevant permission logic when assigning permissions.
Differences of Positions Between Dept. and Position
Permissions of positions assigned in Position are not associated with those in Dept.. Meanwhile, in User's Final Permission, the user who is in the position is assigned permissions.
