Report Library permissions
Security in the Report Library works a little different than it does in the Designer, but also builds upon what we've already seen. As we learned in the last chapter, security is broken out by roles. The roles function differently in the Report Viewer than they do in the Report Designer. Let's take a quick look at what permissions the roles provide in the Report Viewer:
Administrator: Administrative users have full access to all viewing tasks.
Designer: Users assigned this role are able to delete, edit, create folders, rename reports, and folders and view any report they have been granted access to.
Generator : This role provides the same abilities provided by the Designer role within Report Viewer.
Viewer: Members of this role only have access to view reports that they have been granted access too.
In addition to the access provided by the Report Designer roles, the Report Viewer can have permissions to view, create, edit, and delete objects in the Report Library...
