Title: Limit users that can save changes in a report in analysis studio
Post by: sdf on 18 Jun 2014 07:34:13 PM
Hi,

Is there anyway to limit users that can save their changes in a report in analysis studio.
The thing is that, not all users know how to get back to right filters or go back to the default custom set.

any ideas?

You just want to prevent them from changing an existing report? Take away their write permissions.

Or am I missing something?

ahhmm, if i take away their write permission, will they be able to filter that report.

Our scenario:

We created a default report with default filters.
Some users need to change filters from that existing report and so they do.
The problem is, some of them saves their report on analysis studio.
Where they should just be exporting their works to pdf or excel but will leave the report unsaved (default).

Yes they will be able to filter. They just won't be able to save what they do.
