How to change permission of a previously created report
September 17, 2012, 11:24:39 pm
Hey,

I find that I'm unable to chnage the access permissions of any reports from "access civiReport". I select a different permission level from the drop down list like "access civiCRM", hit Update Report, and wait fro the message that tells me the report has been updated. When I expand the Report Settings section again I see that the permission is still set ot "access civiReport".

My question is, is it possible to change the permission from the default for a previously created report?


Thanks.

Hey Deepak,

Thanks for investigating this, and thanks for the update. Is the patch safe to use on version 4.1.5? We are on Drupal 6 and currently unable to upgrade to civi version 4.2.


Leonard.

Regarding the "available for dashboard" checkbox, when I asked about this a couple years ago the answer was that it was by design, because if it stays checked then there's some problem with multiple instances/users using it (sorry I don't remember exactly and can't find the note). Maybe Kurund remembers since I think he answered me?
