Remove Analysis Editor and BI Composer Access from the BI Author Role

You can remove access in the BI Author role to the two areas where users can create reports and analyses, the Analysis Editor and BI Composer.

You can also follow similar steps to create a role and grant the role access to build reports.
  1. From the Navigator menu, click Reports and Analytics.
  2. Click Browse Catalog.
  3. Click the Administration global link at the top, and then in the Administration page under Security, click Manage Privileges.
  4. Click the BI Author Role link next to Access to Answers.
  5. In the Permissions section, select the existing row and click Deny (X).

    At this point, you can leave this page blank so that no users can access the Analysis Editor. Alternatively, you can complete the steps in the next task to create a role, and then grant access to that role by clicking Add (+) to add the role and grant the privilege.
  6. Repeat steps 4-5 to deny the permission for the Access to BI Composer item.
  7. Sign in as a user with the BI Author role (for example, Sales Manager). You shouldn't have access to the Analysis Editor.
