ePortfolio How to Limit Schedule Permissions

Work setting has multiple facilities with a common intranet. I would like to give a user(s) access to schedule 1 report using ePortfolio. User will be a Named User, not a Guest account (Guest account has been disabled). Rights have been set so that only 1 folder (with 1 report) is accessible. Report requires 2 parameters to be entered. CE9, CR9.

I do not want the user to be able to modify settings for Format, Destination, etc., during the scheduling process. I only want the user to see "Parameters" and "Schedule".

How do I do this? I essentially want to give scheduling rights without giving the user the ability to alter format, destination, etc... (all the things that come with scheduling rights)

Is there a way to limit the rights within the scheduling options? Is ePortfolio the way to go, or is there something else out there like a web based link?

TIA
 
Hi,
try setting that user's permissions for that folder and report using the Advanced permissions option list - I think you can get very specific about what is permitted and what is specifically debnied with those choices.

Thanks Turkbear, but I already did that (the Advanced permissions). It had no effect, and it is not specific enough.
 
Hi,
Then I think you would need to develop a custom interface ( .NET preferably) and use that to restrict what can be done - does the user have the right to schedule as well as run with parameters?
