Setting Rules of Visibility

In InfoSphere® MDM, entitlements refer to users' ability to see information and perform tasks according to the constrains for the user and the group the user belongs to.

Setting the data level entitlements, which include both Data Persistency entitlements and Rules of Visibility, are the main subjects of this section.

Execution of the Rules of Visibility (RoV) engine and the Persistency Entitlements engine is controlled through the Extension Handler component. Enabling and disabling RoV or Persistency Entitlements requires activating or deactivating the RoV and Persistency Entitlements extension sets (rules #11 and #12 in the EXTENSIONSET table). Furthermore, complex external constraint evaluation rules may be defined as Java™ classes or rule-sets extensions.
