Report Access and Rights

CA SRM Web Reporter installs five default user groups. These user groups are CA's suggestions to start using the application, but the settings can be modified as necessary. Each of the default user groups has a set access to the report folders and to specific reports.

SRM Administrators are the only group that has full access to view and modify all reports in the User-defined folder, and read-only access to the Templates folder. The other four groups have limited read-only access to specific reports in the User-defined folder, they cannot modify or create any reports, and they cannot access the Templates folder.

Note: You will have the ability to refresh the data manually.

When you open the document, the reports in the "SRM Objects" will be refreshed.

* Read only means (view, refresh, and save as)

Important!

SRM administrator has permissions to copy complete SRM Objects folder to User-defined folder or “Save as” permission for any report.

Now, all BO users (srmstorageadmin, srmexecutive, srmbuowner, srmbackupadmin) can view/modify/refresh SRM objects reports under User-defined folder.

Now, all BO users (srmdashboard, srmexecutive, srmbackupadmin, srmbuowner) will not be able to view their respective dashboard reports in case of fresh install, unless those reports are explicitely copied to the User-defined folder by BO administrator.

Note: For more information about reports access settings, refer the BusinessObjects Enterprise InfoView User's Guide.
