I have created a cube including user roles to restrict the access. Checking with Server Data Tools, everything works fine: the user do see limited data of a particular dimension. I added an user from Active Directoy to that role. After deploying the cube including the new created role and connecting with Excel to that cube with Single Sign On (SSO), I do see all data without any limitation.
What is missing?

Two possibilities. Adding your own username (who is an SSAS admin I assume) to a role will not lower your permissions. You will still be a SSAS admin and can this see everything. If you want to limit your own permissions in Excel you must edit the connection string in Excel and add Roles=YourRoleName
If you are trying to restrict someone else's permissions make sure that other person:
Doesn't have SSAS admin permissions
Isn't a Windows admin because by default there is a BuiltInAdminsAreServerAdmins=True property in SSAS which would make Windows admins be SSAS admins.
Make sure that user isn't also listed as a member in another role. Permissions across roles are additive in SSAS.

I’m trying to work out what permissions for the relevant security role I need.
I’ve got it so that the user can only see tables that I’ve given them access to in PowerApps, but they also need to see it in Dataverse. They don’t have permission to view Dataverse so I’m wondering what is the minimum set of permissions for a security role to view Dataverse?
They need to be a licensed user on Dataverse and have a basic security role assigned.
I am encountered with an insane problem when working in Dynamics CRM 2011 on-premises environment. Everything was working just fine 2 days back. There are two different CRM environment on my clients network (PreProd and Production).
I have System Administrator role on PreProd. The problem is that somehow I have restrictive access in CRM. Meaning, I am not able to create, update entity records. Create buttons are not even visible to my user for all entities!! When I open an entity form, Customize tab is not visible. In short, I have limited access even with System Administrator security role. I have never been in a problem like this before.
Any ideas that what could cause this? I don't have access to PreProd server so I can't troubleshoot this problem by myself. Any suggestions which I can convey them which might be helpful??
Thanks.
Try to recheck Access Mode field for mentioned user. Ensure that it has Read-Write value. If it is not - ask to update that field to Read-Write value.
Open user form in CRM and recheck following field:
I have a user in CRM 2011 having System Administrator security role (image), when I use that user in my Web Service to retrieve Account entity this error comes up
Principal user (Id=927fbba4-d61a-e311-992b-000c295c9030, type=8) is missing
prvReadAccount privilege (Id=886b280c-6396-4d56-a0a3-2c1b0a50ceb0)
I found the issue:
Below is the work-around if some is having issue:
I We had assigned the user Administrator role:
Looking at different user fields in CRM I cam across:
Clien Access License (CAL) Information:
It was having values:
Access Mode : Administrative
License Type: Full
So I changed the Access Mode to :
Read-Write // Yahooooooooooooooo everything is working on the fly :)
Thanks for your time people.
The System Administrator role has all privileges on all records and this cannot be limited in any way.
I have two hypothesis(es?)
Your Web Service isn't actually operating under credentials of a user having the System Administrator role. This is the most probable explanation, you have to make sure your connection gets passed the correct username/password(/domain unless IFD).
Since you have an ID to check against, you can double check who that user is with a simple OData query:
[crm url]/XrmServices/2011/OrganizationData.svc/SystemUserSet(guid'927fbba4-d61a-e311-992b-000c295c9030')
Your CRM setup is messed up (highly unlikely unless you've been fiddling with the database, in that case odd errors and misbehaviors become a quite real possibility)
I have three custom entities; Project, ProjectStageExternal and ProjectStageInternal,I have added a workflow which will create ProjectStageInternal and ProjectStageExternal records when admin creates a Project record.
Now I have a security roll named customer. Users having this roll only read the Project and ProjectStageExternal records.
The problem is workflow is not working when ownership is changed to users having customer security roll. Its showing this following error: The selected user does not have sufficient privileges to be assigned records of this type.
what am I missing here?
Thanks.
That security role has basically no permissions on those entities, so the users wont be able to do anything with them.
If you want someone to be able to assign (or have a workflow assign on their behalf) you need to grant the assign permission and probably write as well.
If you dont want to grant them those permissions, change the workflow's Scope to organisation and assign it to an admin user. That means the workflow will run with the admins permissions and security roles.
Only providing Read Privileges to the user/team whom the record is to be assigned will work perfectly fine !!
I'm trying to secure an MS Access 2003 mdb using the workgroup security. I've got most of it set up (using a new MDW etc), but I can't stop people creating new tables in the database, if they've got access to open it. Am I missing something?
None of the accounts have any permissions allowed, I'm doing it all through groups.
Users only have Open\Run access to the database, no access to <New Tables/Queries> and only "Read Data" access on all the other tables, including the MSys* tables.
Any thoughts or am I trying to do the impossible?
--Update--
I've tried using the wizard as suggested, but that still leaves me with the same problem. I created a blank database & ran the wizard on it. Assigned 2 users, Me & User, and removed all access to the standard groups. I added Me into the Admin group & User to the Read Only group.
Not using the MDW denies access, as expected. Logging in as Me allows full access (Design things, add data, delete data, etc), logging in as User will allow read data inexisting tables, but not add data or design them (as expected), but it will still allow creation of a new table, which User will then have full access to add, delete etc.
So, over a year after posting this question, I have another go at solving it, but his time with success!
I came across the Microsoft Accesss Permissions Explorer and this showed that the standard ways of securing the database, both manually and using the wizard still give the Users group explicit Create permsissions on the Tabes Container. This same software also allows the revoking of said permissions, so now I can have a fully secured database, where any user can access the mdb without using a special MDB, but they are only able to access and edit the data I want them to.
Can your users use the runtime version of msAccess? They will not have the ability to create any new Access object, such as table, query, form, etc.
And runtime version is free, so you'll also spare on licences!
