Reports

This item of the Deltek PM Compass hierarchy controls the entire Reports panel in PM Compass.

When you enable this item, all of its child items are also enabled by default. You can, however, define the permissions for each Reports menu item individually.

In addition, some of the parent items are not really securable options. PPM Administrator only uses them to group child items. For example, the Links menu item under Details View of Projects is only used to group the securable options on the Links tab, and does not indicate that you can disable the tab. Similarly, the Report Categories item of Reports is used to group various categories, and does not refer to a securable option. Thus, selecting either Enabled or Disabled does not have any effect.

The following items can be found within the Reports menu:

Print	Enabling this item allows users and group members assigned this role to use the Print button to print selected reports.
Schedule	Enabling this item allows users and group members assigned this role to use the Schedule button to display the Schedule dialog box.
