Decision Center data is stored in a database. The database administrator might require that you provide the specific permissions that you need when accessing this database.
Connection to the Decision Center database, established in the data source credentials, and any subsequent requests to the database are handled through a database user. This database user (name and password), for example rtsdbUser, is defined by the database administrator and has no relation to the standard Decision Center groups.
The following table gives the permissions that the database administrator must define on the Decision Center database, with attention given to the type of operations that you want to perform. Some supported databases do not require all the above permissions.
