Public Report Management (New v6.63 Feature)
Administrators can now assign user groups a new privilege called, "Can manage public reports," found in the Reports category. This new privilege grants users within a user group the ability to remove a report from its public status. Additionally, "My Report" and "Public" report badges are added to reports to easily convey status. Pre-6.63, only report authors could change the public status of a report.
How to Enable the Public Report Management Privilege
- From Administration, in the Main Menu click Users and Groups.
- In the Main Menu, click Groups.
- Click Edit for a group entry listing.
- The Allowed Action screen appears.
- In the Reports category, click the Can manage public reports checkbox.
- Click Update Group.
Reports Interface
Reports now include "Public" or "My Report" badges to convey public or private status, respectively. In addition, search functionality now returns matching results in real time.
Available functionality includes:
My Report (not public)
- Delete
- Export
My Report (that is also public)
- Delete
- Export
- Remove from Public: Removes the public status.
Public Report
- Remove from Public (if the user has been granted the "Can manage public reports" privilege). A warning message appears conveying that anyone who is not the author will lose access to the report.
Report Information
