Restricting Access
Security can be assigned to individual reports by running the VISTA Report Maintenance program.
When security has been assigned to a report, VISTA does not allow users to view reports that they
have not been authorized to read. Turn to Chapter 7 in this guide for more information on defining
report security.
Components
VISTA is a combination of several components. This section outlines the components and provides
