Joe may be on to something here. You can trigger a filter on Get Entry and
this works for the client, Crystal, MS Access, etc (client type = 6 does
work to limit it to just ARODBC but in the below example it should always
fire). There was a thread "Question:  Disable ODBC" on 11/5/06 regarding
Client-Type= 6 and ARODBC access. The problem here is that is not specific
to a field(s), just the record as a whole. 

 

But what if you store all of the Permissioned data as separate records
related to the parent in a second form and used a table field to view them
from the parent. If you are familiar with version 6 of Asset it is like the
"Additional Data" functionality. Then have a filter fire on Get Entry from
the Permissioned form and create audit records for each PHI record that was
accessed. This same filter would also fire when accessed by the ARODBC
driver from Crystal.

 

This only covers the ARS side of things so you will need to makes sure that
the DB has sufficient protection as well.

If crystal is the only external app using the AR System ODBC driver, maybe
you could try to log an attempt to perform a search, when the CLIENT-TYPE is
the AR ODBC driver.. I think the value for that is 6... I haven't tried it
but it must might be possible to write a piece of workflow when the AR ODBC
driver performs a search on the AR System database...

 

Give that a shot...

Ron, 

I would say this is outside the Realm of ARS, as the DB connection is the
issue.. 

Now maybe BMC will add this feature in the future for tracking all data
accessed with from DB level or ARS, but I do know know of anything like this
yet.

 

I would recommend checking your DB.. Oracle has Auditing Functionality, Also
there are records for Listener connections, yet that does not tell you what
tables.. so this is an Auditing withing the DB... 

Now once that is (DB Auditing) is running .. I am sure Remedy will access
the Table records as its own.. for checking purposes just fine... 

 

Crystal is using ARODBC or ODBC  -- or a Data Base Connection.. 

 

Help this get's you on the Correct Track.. 

 

Have a Great day.

We have the need to place electronic patient health information into our
Helpdesk application into permissioned off fields.  In this day and age,
Data Security in the Healthcare field is at DEFCON 5, I know from personal
experience at Providence.  We are about to implement workflow to log when a
User accesses the Permissioned data on a form, i.e.. could have looked at a
diary and attachment field.  We know what to do inside the ARS environment
to log this, but the question came up about a User going through Crystal
Reports.  Is there are way to identify a User could have viewed the
Permissioned data through Crystal and then fire workflow that we could then
update a Audit form like we do with workflow.  Or is this data available
else where that we could at least view and store for future auditing
purposes. 

 

Thanks,
