Assign Reports/Report Selection to Role

In this activity, you can assign individual reports to a role.

Activities

To assign reports to a role, proceed as follows:

1. Choose the "Role" pushbutton.
2. Create a new role. Alternatively, you can enter one that already exists and then choose "Change".
3. In the "Menu" tab page, select the "Report" button. Then select the type of report, the appropriate application class and the desired report. You can use the report type to assign reports of different types (such as "Report Writer" reports or drilldown reports).

Further Notes

The create and change functions are no longer supported for report trees. In future, reports are to be assigned to roles as an alternative method to the use of user-defined report trees.

If necessary, you can choose to convert previously-used report trees into an area menu. To do this, start the transaction "RTTREE_MIGRATION". (for more information, see the program documentation relating to this subject). You can then assign the area menu generated from the report tree to a role and thereby make it accessible to users.
