You need to create an Administrative User in BI Publisher to connect P6 to BI Publisher (part of the steps defined below in Configuring BI Publisher in the P6 Administrator application).

To create the administrative user:

   • The instructions assume you are using the BI Publisher Security Model for 10g or 11g.
   • Non-admin users can run reports as well.
2. In BI Publisher 10g, click the Admin tab.

   In BI Publisher 11g, click Administration at the top of your screen.

3. On the Administration page, click Users under Security Center.
4. On the Users tab, click Create User.
5. On the Create User page, enter a Username and Password. For example, PxRptUser. Click Apply.
6. On the Users tab, click Assign Roles next to the new user.
7. On the Assign Roles page, assign the P6Reports and BI Publisher Administrator role and click Apply.
