Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Reporting:
Query/Results Administration and Development

Understanding the relationship between roles

Along with understanding the programming and administrative roles, it is important to understand the relationship between them. For example, the Results programmer must understand the administration requirements of a Results application and then customize Results to support those requirements. While the programmer might decide to deny all users access to the Customize menu in the user environment, the programmer might grant only the site administrator access to all or a portion of the Site Administration menu. For this reason, Results developers should read Chapter 2, "Administering Results," before customizing Results. By understanding the general Results administration requirements, the developer will be able to address the needs of one of the most important users at the end-user site—the site administrator.
