How to distribute multiple reports to salesmen

I have a report template which I use to multiple salesmen showing quantity sold, avg. prices and so on, just changing the name in the filter.

What is the best way to "control" all these reports? They are not allowed to see each other's report, but I don't want seperate workspaces for each salesman. 
Would be nice to have just one workspace holding a lot of individual reports where the salesmen are only allowed to see their own.

Use Row Level Security (RLS). One report, create a role for each sales person, assign each sales person to their roll and you are done.

The modelling tab is not available to me as I am using and OLAP cube connection. 

Any solution to this?
