Access to SAS Web Report Studio Capabilities

Different users might have access to different functionality depending on their assigned roles. Roles are mapped to capabilities. A capability, also known as an application action, defines the operations a user can perform.
Here are some of the capabilities that are typically restricted to more advanced roles:
  • creating new reports
  • scheduling reports
  • printing reports
  • refreshing reports
  • exporting reports
  • distributing reports
  • adding and editing recipient lists
SAS Web Report Studio ships with three predefined roles — Report Viewing, Report Creation, and Advanced. A predefined set of capabilities are available for each role. Using SAS Management Console, a system administrator can modify these roles and specify the capabilities that meet the guidelines for your company. They can also define new roles. If you have questions about your assigned role, contact your system administrator.
For more information about the roles and capabilities that are available, see the SAS Web Report Studio chapter in the SAS Intelligence Platform: Web Application Administration Guide.
