Report access from report another report without manual user access

[Narukkp]

Hi Team,

I have one existing report Version 1.0 and around 250 users accessing this report. Now we are introducing the new report version 2.0 and I need to give this report access to  all users (250) who are accessing by version 1.0. Is there a way to give access without entering the manually  giving the user access  ? Because In our organization we can not create the Groups ( Outlook Email groups) .

Hi Narukkp,

No easy way of doing it, I see 2 possible options that could take the hazzle of adding them to the new report.

1. Editing version 1 with a clearing warning that this report will be removed in said days and that user should click provided link (text with linked URL to the new report) to gain access. You should then receive an email from each person requesting access to the new report from following your link, a pain I know. This does provide you with the ability to only include people that are currently using the existing report and therefore clicking the link.

2. Call the new report version 1 and just overwite the old report, this will then mean you hold onto those 250 users. Not an ideal solution but a quick fix.
