Define horizontal partitions

This page allows you to define the horizontal partitions. You can define a filter and associate it with any role. When a view is created, the mapped role would get only relevant information from the view. In other words, the roles mapped to the filter criteria would always get filtered information in the views.

The “Define Horizontal Partitions” page appears.
