Active Report Display Blank for BI_Viewers

Hi there,

I've tried searching for the answer to this one, and have come up blank.  I'm pretty sure that the answer is somewhere in the Cognos Security Capabilities, but I've yet to find it.  I'm hoping that someone can point this out to me.

Case: I have a requirement to publish Active Reports (for a dashboard) and have found that anyone who has only BI_Viewer access only gets a blank screen when clicking on the link to the active report.  However, Anyone within the BI Analyst Role can see it just fine.

Please note, I did not create the report, I am just trying to figure out the security to be able to have our viewer see the report without purchasing additional Analyst licenses.

Thoughts?  Answers?

Thanks,

Gordon
