How do I create a template or master report in which users can edit and save modifications (using "Save As" ) without changing the original report which serves as the template or master report?
Reports by default in the global.asax sets the CurrentUserName to
IzendaAdmin. It also sets CurrentUserIsAdmin to true. In order to set a
report to read-only for use a template or master report, an Admin (any
user for whom CurrentUserIsAdmin is true) must be logged in and select
this property in the Misc Tab in the Report Designer. If the User who
is an Admin saves the report with read-only checked, then any other
user (non-admin) will not be able to save changes to the report, they
will have to "Save As" for their own use. Therefore, the report has
become a "template" or "master" report.
