Title: Restrict user scheduling ability
Post by: wyconian on 16 Jun 2011 06:30:53 AM
Hi everyone

I've searched the forum and can't find anything on this so maybe one of you can help.

I've got a number of users creating hourly schedules for reports.  I need to be able to limit users from creating schedules to run reports more than once a day (or stop them creating day based schedules altogether).  This is having an impact on our overnight batches.

Any ideas on how to do this?

As always thanks for any help.

Simon

You can restrict who can schedule reports from Administration->Security->Capabilities->Scheduling. Under Permission tab you will be able to manage who can see and schedule reports, but I don't believe you will be able to restrict how many reports they can schedule.
