Article Goal: Provide the permissions for the default WebReports roles.
In this article we cover the permissions granted by each of the default WebReports roles.
What are the default roles?
WebReports has 6 default roles (Admin, Publisher, Queue, RoleAdmin, Scheduler and User).
IMPORTANT NOTES:
1. Users can be assigned multiple roles at the same time; each permission assigned to the specific role will be given to the user. For example, someone with the User and Scheduler roles will have all permissions for the User and Scheduler roles.
2. The Admin role has all permissions.
3. Additional Roles can be created. Click here for more info.
4. Users with the Scheduler role will only be able to schedule reports that are available to their assigned roles. For example, if you only have the Scheduler role you will only be able to schedule reports assigned to Scheduler. If you are assigned the Scheduler and User roles, you can schedule reports assigned to both the Scheduler and User roles.)
5. Queue for Role requires both Queue and RoleAdmin permissions.
