  • 1.  Advanced Reporting Typically what rights users should be given?

    Posted Dec 09, 2015 04:36 PM

    I gave user rights to navigate and create report but report list is still empty. If I want users to only produce reports, no ad hoc views etc, so that they just  click on report list and start looking at the reports.. what are the steps?

    Hi Suhas,

     

    You seem to be hitting a known issue with Advanced Reporting rights:

     

    CLRT-79026 Advance Reporting - Navigate right does not allow to see/run reports

     

    Status (28th of June 2016) This issue was reviewed by Sustaining and Product Management and set to Working as designed.

    The Advanced Reporting - Navigate right is designed only to give access to Advanced Reporting link, but not the OOTB reports. This is made to be consistent with the permissions in PPM. The Navigate rights are not view or edit rights. To get the view / edit access, Jaspersoft Administrator has to assign appropriate CSK role to the user.

    Reference to the actual descriptions of the Roles :

    Connect to page:

    CA PPM Advanced Reporting and Database Schema Index - CA Technologies

    Scroll down until you see:

    CA PPM 14.3 ------ Advanced Reporting Product Guide

    Chapter 10: The 'Advanced Reporting Roles'

     

    Please follow the workaround below:

     

    1. Connect to Advanced Reporting with a user with Advanced Reporting - Administer right

    2. Go to Manage -  Users - select the user needed

    3. In the right pane, click the Edit button

    4. Now select CSK roles from the Roles available list into Roles Assigned. The roles selected will depend on how you would like to configure the permissions, based on the PDF document above.

    5. When done, hit Save

    Your user should now be able to access the reports you granted the permissions for.

     

    This should resolve the issue.

     

    For more information please refer to Advance Reporting - Navigate right only does not allow to see/run JS reports

     

    Kind Regards
