This permission gives users the ability to make specified Views or Reports visible to other users.

Considerations

  • If Make Views/Reports Visible to Others permission are enabled, then users also have Make Views/Reports Visible to Others permission enabled by default
  • If Manage Global Views/Reports permission are enabled, then Make Views/Reports Visible to Others permission is also enabled (as an override)
  • The Make Views/Reports Visible to Others permission is set in [Administrative Permissions]]
