Report Manager Overview
- Jason Reel (Deactivated)
The Report Manager allows a user to set default permissions for each individual report in the Office application. This means that every report can be made globally available or hidden to all users with report access. Additionally, each report allows users to override the default setting for a specific user. Meaning that global permissions can be set and automatically applied to users when granting report access but there can be exceptions, granting access for a particular user.
When users are denied access to a report, or a report is inactive, they will not see it in the list of reports.
Navigate the Report List
Similar to the way reports are grouped in other places, the list of reports will be listed by category. These parent categories help group related reports by topic.
Expand the categories to browse for a report or use the search box to filter the report list to those that match keywords.
The report list has an icon for each report signaling the global permission, Allow All or Deny All.
Allow All - checkmark
Deny All - "X"
Users can further filter the report list using the bottom Active/Inactive/All toggle buttons.
Report Details
When a report is selected the report details will show the report name, category (or categories) and description.
A single report can fall into more than one category. This allows a report to be found under more than one topic.
