Access latest saved output version only

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for a solution for the following situation: Im running an Active Report with a prompt selection in the background to save the output. As soon as the user runs the report the save output pops up (by clicking the report in the portal). It is intended to run only the selection - because of performance and a business case. So far so good - that works great.

Challenge: now I'd like to distribute the saved output version to other folders, where users should be able to only access the output. If I create shortcuts, user with certain permissions will still be able to run and change the selection of the report. Or some users will not have access to the original report (read, execute und traverse on the folder). Is there a way to access only an output? Report view acts the same like a shortcut.

Cognos Analytics 11.0.13.

Thans and best regards,
CC
