Menu bar items available after logging on

Your assigned permissions determine the menu options available to you. The permission types are:

  • Edit Reports
  • Manage Users

A user with no assigned permissions can log on and view reports but they cannot access administrator functions. They can change the values in the Report Dates selector, the Identifier Selector, or the Number Editor component, if present in a report, to update the data that is displayed. See Interactive elements in reports for further information.
