CR2008 (not so) Editable Parameters

[NRobertson]

Hi,

I have a number of CR 2008 reports published on BusinessObjects Enterprise XI (r3) with some parameters marked as "editable" for the viewer panel. All of these parameters are appearing on the panel in infoview OK, but some are marked "read only" when viewing the reports. I double check in CR2008 and they are "editable". For client usablity we need these to be editable.

Any ideas on how to fix them?

Hi,
Are the rights granted on all the reports the same for all the users?

Hi,

Different groups of users have different rights to the reports, but nothing outside the default Access Levels in BOXI (View, Schedule, Administrator).

It does not seem to matter which combination of user schedules or views the report instances, the parameter is always read only where it should be editable in InfoView.


I've found a crude work around, completely removing the parameter from the report and re-building it. Seems to have fixed the problem but would have liked to not have all the extra work. If someone knows a solution if the problem comes up again that would be awesome.
