Change the Owner or Time Zone for Deliveries

If you're an administrator, you can change the owner or time zone for one or more deliveries. You can make yourself the new owner or select a different user. This is useful when the original owner changes, leaves your organization, or after migration from a different environment. The change time zone option also comes in handy if you need to change the time zone for multiple deliveries, and this is especially useful when you migrate deliveries from a different environment with a different time zone.

For example, you might migrate deliveries from an on-premises Oracle Analytics Server environment where the time zone is correctly set to your local US time to an environment with a different time zone. If you migrate to Oracle Analytics Cloud where the time zone changes to UTC, your deliveries arrive too early. In this scenario, you need an easy way to update the time zone for all your deliveries.

  1. On your home page, click Navigator Navigator icon used to display the Navigator, then click Console.
  2. Click Monitor Deliveries.

    The Change menu is available only to administrators. If you don't have the required permissions, ask your administrator to make the changes for you.

  3. To change the owner of a delivery, click the Action menu for the delivery, select Change, and then Owner.
    To change multiple deliveries at once, select Shift + click or Ctrl + click to select all the deliveries you want, then right-click and select Change, then Owner.
    1. Start typing the name of the new owner to find the user. Use * as a wildcard.
      Alternatively, click Assign to Me to make yourself the new owner.
    2. Click Change Owner.
    3. If the current owner and the RunAs user for a delivery are the same, the new owner becomes the new RunAs user. Click OK to acknowledge and allow changes to the RunAs user, where required.
      When the RunAs user changes, take care to review the new RunAs user’s data and object security to ensure the required access levels are applied.
