Analysis Reports enforce file permissions by restricting access to the My Folder for each user account and to the Shared Folder for each organization:
Only the specific user can view and access the contents of their My Folder.
All users can view the content of the Shared Folder but cannot enact changes.
When you create an analysis report, the system creates and saves the report in your My Folder. This prevents all other users from being able to run and perform modifications on your report.
When you publish the report, the system creates a copy of your saved report in the Shared Folder, and allows users without access to the OBIEE Analysis portlet to run the report.
