Manage ACLs for User Group Child Objects

Starting in MicroStrategy ONE (September 2024), can you can manage ACLs for user group child objects. ACL security is very crucial in determining object security. It is often required to assign child objects different access from the parent and assign them consequently to the children objects. The ACL concept of parent-child relationships applies to user and user groups structure in Workstation.
