Reporting Permissions

The Reporting 2.0 functionality is controlled by a series of permissions that allow you to create more specific reports by report field. For this reason, permissions are at more of a granular level with this functionality.

The permissions are broken down by the main product level permission, section level, and then at the field level. For example, if you wanted to report on Instructor Led Training (ILT) in the system, you would need:

  • The Reporting - Manage permission to create reports.
  • The Reporting - View permission to preview reports and view reports.

You would also need:

  • The top-level product specific permission to create reports related to that product.
    • e.g. Reporting - Learning - Manage
  • The section specific permission to create reports for that feature within the product.
    • e.g. Reporting - Learning - ILT - Manage
  • The field level permissions to be able to create reports with the specific fields for that feature within the product.
    • e.g. Reporting - Learning - ILT - ILT Facility - Manage

If a user does not have each level of permission, then they may not have access to the report builder, or the section may not be visible, or the fields within the section may not be visible. Also, if a user does not have the top-level product permission, then none of the fields for that product will be visible, such as the fields for LMS reports.

The power of this granularity of permissions is that you can give access to as many or as few fields as necessary for your users. For example, you may give users access to the User section but not give them access to the User Identifier section if that contains sensitive data for your portal.

Reporting 2.0 List of Permissions

For the full list of permissions and their relationships, see the permissions spreadsheet in Online Help. Note: The most recent permissions update for Reporting 2.0 was with the February '19 release.

The Reporting - System Templates permission grants users the ability to use all pre-built templates. Pre-built templates are available for generating certain Learning, Core, and Performance data. Users with this permission will also be able to use any new templates that are added in future releases, provided that they still have the permission.

This permission works in conjunction with other Reporting 2.0 permissions. For example, users without the Reporting - Learning - View permission will not see any pre-built templates for Learning.

This permission is automatically added to the Cornerstone Administrator and System Administrator security roles in all portals that have self-enabled Reporting 2.0.

Sharing Reports Created with a Pre-Built Template

When you share a report that was creating using a template, the shared users will be able to view the report without needing to be granted the Reporting - System Templates permission. The permission is only needed for administrators who should distribute templates to their users.

This permission grants access to build and manage reports in the Custom Integrations section. This permission cannot be constrained.

This permission grants access to view the Custom Integrations section in reporting. This permission cannot be constrained.

The Reporting - Delivery permission grants the ability to deliver reports in Reporting 2.0. Users must also have permission to view reports. The permission can be used in conjunction with the various product, section, and field level permissions. Users must have permission to view Reporting 2.0 in order to have access to a report that is delivered to them. If they do not have view access, then the Reporting 2.0 navigation sublink will not display for them.

Users who have permission to manage Reporting 2.0 can edit a report that is delivered to them. They can also copy the delivered report.

The following constraints are available for this permission:

  • OU
  • User’s OU
  • User Self and Subordinates
  • User
  • User's Self
  • User's Manager
  • User's Superiors
  • User’s Subordinates
  • User’s Direct Subordinates
  • Employee Relationship

The Reporting - Download permission grants users the ability to download Reporting 2.0 reports. This permission cannot be constrained; however, when users download a report, any Reporting - View constraints are applied. Users with the permission see the download option on the Report Home and the Report Viewer.

For clients that have already opted in and previously activated Reporting 2.0, this new permission is added automatically to the System Administrator role and to any security role that currently has at least one Reporting - View permission.

For clients that are opting in and activating Reporting 2.0 for the first time with the August ’18 Release, this new permission is available to administrators in the System Administrator role who can then add the permission to other roles at their discretion. Users without this permission will not see any download options in the Report Home or the while Viewing Reporting 2.0 reports.

The option for sharing reports is only visible to users who have the Reporting - Share Report permission. Users without the permission can still receive shared reports, but constraints (for other permissions, such as Reporting - Core permissions) will be respected. For example, if you share a report that contains data around Location A and the user receiving the report is constrained to only see data for Location B, the report would not contain any records.

The following constraints are available for this permission:

  • OU
  • User’s OU
  • User Self and Subordinates
  • User’s Direct Report
  • User
  • User's Self
  • User's Manager
  • User's Superiors
  • User’s Subordinates
  • User’s Direct Subordinates
