Within CXO-Cockpit there are two roles that can build reports, the full administrator and the report creator. Both user types make use of the CXO-Designer but will have different permissions.

Report Creator

Full Administrator

The Report Creator role can be assigned to users who want to take advantage of building reports, but should not be setup as Full Administrators of CXO-Cockpit. This enforces a governed process of business reporting. These users can build reports using the CXO-Designer, but have restrictions when compared to the Full Administrator role. These restrictions include:

1. No access to assign a report to a menu group
2. No access to assign security on a report
3. No access to create any shared objects like variables, formats, cube calculations, lists, etc.
   
   

The Report Creator role can be powerful for functional users that want to create new reports. Reports can be built using any delivered CXO template, or by creating a Free Format Report. The user can create their own custom objects (linked objects), including lists and formats which can only be referenced in the report that they are creating. Once a report is created, an Administrator will have to assign the report into a menu, and assign security access on the report as required. 

A Full Administrator can also make a any report/object that is designed by a Report Creator and convert it into shared objects, which can then be referenced by all other Report Creator roles as well.

Full Administrator

The Full Administrator role provides full access to all report creation and administration tasks.
