Title: HTML items in report give errors
Post by: hpmkruit on 16 Sep 2009 12:13:06 AM
Hi all,

Hopefully you can help me with this: I just added a HTML item to an existing report which was used by Consumers. But now when a Consumer tries to run the report he gets an error:

"The user does not have the assigned capability to use 'HTMLItem' layout element."

This i find strange, because in the Capabilities property of the parent folder I've set HTML items in Report to Grant for Everyone.

Am I missing something here?

I have fixed the problem:

In addition to the above i have given consumers Execute and Traverse rights to the HTML Items in Reports capability under Cognos Administration.

Also, i have given consumers Traverse rights on the Report Studio Capability (Parent folder/Capability of HTML Items in Reports)
