Understanding the Reports Role

Updated on July 22, 2024

The Reports role can be assigned to users enabling access to reporting capabilities without requiring access to the AP Management or Buyer roles.

Please note that the Default View for Carts/Reqs/Orders and Confidential Orders settings in a user's account will not prevent users with the Reports role from viewing specific orders.  Users with this role will be able to run reports and view all orders regardless of these settings in their account.
