    We had an issue on LBI 9.0.4. where the permissions or user ids set on a dashboard were cascading down to modules and links.

    In 9.0.4.1. lawson has changed this where they have given a user the option not to accept the cascadeing down of user access from dashboards, modules, links etc. They have done this by adding a line to modify the sysconfig file on framewrok services and adding "PERMISSION_INHERITANCE" as false.

    Has anyone implemented this? Any experiences/issues that you can share would be great.

        I have completed testing this today.

        The issue we had was we had to change the sysconfig.xml file to add that line but the instructions were not clear enough that we needed a space before the word "value". Because tehre was no space t LBi was not starting up. Once we added the space restarted FS it started working. But for some reason the line was present twice in the file. When we removed the line it seemed to work.

        So right this actually works well in 9.0.4.1 where the user access permissions are not cascading down from the dashboard, module and link level.
