Report Permissions

The Business Process Server administrator must assign you the permission to perform any action on the specific report type. In Business Process Server, there are four types of reports: Query Report, MultiApps, External and Infopad Report.
The Business Process Server administrator must first grant you the permission for the application(s) from which the report is derived.
To view/execute existing Management reports:
1. Once you have the required permissions, the Go button in the My Reports page is enabled and you can execute an existing report (see Runningan existing report).
Note: The report may be filtered, since any process instance or dataslot that the user does not have permissions for is not shown.
2. To create a report, you must have permission for the application(s) the report is derived from and have the Create a Report permission for the application. Once these permissions are granted, the Query button in the My Reports page is enabled and you can create a report (see Creating Query (Application) and Multiapplication reports).
3. To delete a report, you need the permissions described in step 4, as well as the Remove a Report permission. With these permissions, the Delete button in the My Reports page is enabled and you can delete a report (see Removing an existing report).
4. To modify an existing report, you need the permissions described in step 4, as well as the Modify a Report permission. With these permissions, Edit Report () icon is available beside the Report Name column in the My Reports page and you can modify an existing report using the Edit Report icon (see Modifyingan existing report).
To hold ReportBuilder permissions, the Business Process Server administrator must assign you the permission to perform any action on any ReportBuilder, as well as permissions for the application(s) from which the report is derived.
To view/update BPM SQL reports, you can execute it by providing default report and default report builder as additional permissions (for more information, see Report types).
