Hi, I'm new in Cognos Analytics.

I'm the system administrator of Cognos Analytics v 11.0.10 where I work. I added some members under the Analytics Users and Analytics Explorers role; but they don't have the option to Create a Report when they click the "NEW" button.

When these users click on "New", the available options are Dashboard, Story, Data module, Other, Upload Files, Jobs. In fact, all options less Report!!

I checked the customization->features options for both roles and the "Create a Report" option is enable, however this option doesn't appear at the navigation bar.

** I attached an image for better understanding of this issue.





Your help please.

Hi,

It sounds to me like someone might have removed the reporting capabilities of those roles in the Capabilities section of the Admin Console? Go to the Report Studio capability and see if those two roles have Traverse and Execute permission granted.

Cheers!

Meep!
