Description JaTara Barnes 2012-12-05 22:22:38 UTC
When creating a new staff member and setting their permissions such that the create_reports option is disabled AND the execute_reports option is enabled, the staff member cannot run any reports at all. They can only run reports when both create_reports and execute_reports are enabled. We should be able to disable staff members options to create reports while not affecting their ability to run reports.
Comment 1 Marc VĂ©ron 2012-12-11 07:56:07 UTC
Tested to verify (on current master, 3.11.00.005) with follovwing steps:

1)
Create user "reportrunner"

2)
Give following permissions only: 
- catalogue 
- execute_records

3)
Run reports:
- Previousely saved report: OK
- Patrons with most checkouts: OK
- Patrons with no checkouts: OK

Result: Can not reproduce the problem.

Please provide more information on how to reproduce the problem. Thanks :-)
