Permissions for Reports

Your NetSuite account administrator assigns roles to users. Each role has associated permissions. NetSuite includes four different types of permissions: Lists, Reports, Setup, and Transactions. You have one or more assigned roles that you can use to log in to NetSuite. The permissions associated with the role you use to log in determine the reports that you can run during a NetSuite session (along with the center you're using and the features enabled in your account).

If you're having trouble accessing reports, contact your administrator to help determine your assigned role and permissions, and to determine whether these require changes.

The following is a list of Reports type permissions that may be needed to run particular reports. Some permissions apply to groups of reports, whereas others apply to single reports.

Note:

Custom fields have an additional level of field-level security that applies to the use of custom fields in reports. Security for a custom field in reports can be defined as a Search/Reporting access level, on the custom field record. Access can be defined generally, and by role, department, or if you are using NetSuite OneWorld, subsidiary. Available access levels include Edit (can view and change the field), Run (can view the field in search and report results but can't change it), and None (can't view or change the field). For more information, see Restricting Access to Custom Fields.
