Marketing System Authorization Requirements

For the latest version of Commerce Server 2007 Help, see the Microsoft Web site.

The Marketing Web service performs authorization checks to make sure that the user running an operation has permission to perform that operation. These checks are performed by the Microsoft Authorization Manager runtime.
