Data Limitations

People Planner supports Data Limitations.

These are restrictions that hide data from the user; there are various reasons for this:

  • The user is not authorized to see the data.
  • If it were unlimited the data would be too much for the application to handle in a speedy manner.
  • If it were unlimited the data would overwhelm the user; it would be difficult to find the pertinent data among all the other data.

An example of a Data Limitation could be to hide all projects that are older than two years.

There are different types of Data Limitations in People Planner:

  • System Data Limitations
  • Public Data Limitations
  • User Data Limitations

A user is associated with one or more roles in People Planner. These roles are again associated with one or more System Data Limitations. These combined System Data Limitations are always in effect for the user.

Note: See the Deltek People Planner Fundamentals Guide for detailed information about Data Limitations.
