Regarding WRITE permission

[cognoslearner1]

Hi all,

I have a requirement to make users to view "report run history". This can be done when they can "save" report output in cs. So I had to give write permissions to report. But this enables them delete option. So I have to give write permission in order to view report run history and at the same time I have to disable delete options to the user group. Can you pls help me on this ?

Nope. If you grant Write privilege, you are also granting the ability to delete.

Got something here  which explains to remove certain actions from cognos connection

http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21672536

here one question arises . If certain "actions" are removed from the connections. Then admins have access to those "actions" ? eg delete.

Thanks,
