Running Financial Reports

Working With Profitability and Cost Management Financial Reports describes Profitability and Cost Management financial reports.

Note:

Viewer and User roles do not by default have access to run Financial Reporting reports. The Administrator must grant permissions on the PCM application folder or on individual reports within that folder. Permissions can be granted to the seeded Viewer and User roles, to native groups that are assigned to them, or to individual users, using the Edit Permissions option in Explore Repository. Only then will users with the Viewer or User role privileges be able to see and run the Financial Reporting reports in Profitability and Cost Management.

Data Grants are necessary for users with Viewer and User roles to see the data in the reports they run.
