    Lvl.ExportAllowed := 
False;
    Lvl.PrintAllowed := 
False;

// Check in license
    Lic := Null;
End Sub UserProc;

Imports Prognoz.Platform.Interop.Metabase;

Public Shared Sub Main(Params : StartParams);
Var
    MB: IMetabase;
    MS: IMetabaseSecurity;

    MB := Params.Metabase;
    
// Get license to work with security manager
    Lic := MB.RequestLicense(UiLicenseFeatureType.lftAdm);
    MS := MB.Security;
    MU := MS.Policy;
    
// Get mandatory access control settings
    MAccess := MU.MandatoryAccess;

    Lvl := Cat.AddLevel(
1"Level 1");
    Lvl.ExportAllowed :=
