7.25 Inventory Report Rights

The Inventory Report Rights panel allows you to control an administrator’s rights to edit and run the standard and custom inventory reports.

Each report folder has rights associated with it, governing all the reports within that folder. For example, if you have full rights to a report folder, you can edit a report; but with view/execute rights, you can only see the report and run it. With inventory report rights, you can limit who has access to certain reports and who can edit them. The report folder type, custom or standard, and the report name are listed along with the rights associated with the folder. The choices are Remove All Rights, Assign View/Execute Rights, and Assign Full Rights.

Steps

Additional Details

Remove all rights

  1. Select the report folder.

  2. Click Edit > Remove All Rights.

This removes all rights to the folder, so the specified administrator cannot see it.

Assign view/execute rights

  1. Select the report folder.

  2. Click Edit > Assign View/Execute Rights.

This allows the specified administrator to view and execute a report in the specified folder, but not to edit, move, or delete a report in that folder.

Assign full rights

  1. Select the report folder.

  2. Click Edit > Assign Full Rights.

This gives the specified administrator full rights to create, edit, move, and delete reports. For standard reports, this setting is the same as View/Execute, because you cannot alter a standard report.
