Authorization Scope Dimension
An Authorization Scope Dimension is a structured parameter used to define the perimeter within which an access right applies.
Definition
An Authorization Scope Dimension is a modeling construct used to express that a right is not simply granted or denied globally, but applies only within a specific perimeter such as a country, business unit, site, warehouse, project, or data domain. It enables finer access models than pure role assignment by attaching contextual boundaries to permissions.
