How do I create a Report Shortcut and save it for other users to run
How do I create a report shortcut and save it on local network for other Intelligence Reporting users to run. Please note: these users need to have a version of Intelligence Reporting installed to run from the shortcut.
Client has created a report short cut for the report viewers, however when running this short cut the user gets the following error:
You don’t have access to: “c:\users\dawieC:\Pastel14\Custom\SageIntelligence\BICore.exe -LNK[C:\Users\Dawie.DJBOSMAN\AppData\Local\Sage Pastel\Sage Pastel Intelligence Reporting\Version 14\lnk_24a1bc1e-5a9d-4147-9076-000f763a0b9a.txt]”
Attempting to run out the short cut as a report viewer the above error is displayed.
When the short cut is created it is automatically created to look at the local machines c: drive, however the short cut can be saved on any machine and this causes a conflict.
• Right click on the Short cut
• Click on Properties
• Click on Shortcut tab
• In the target field wherever you see the C: replace that with the current computer name that you are using example:
• c:\users\dawieC:\Pastel14\Custom\SageIntelligence\BICore.exe -LNK[C:\Users\Dawie.DJBOSMAN\AppData\Local\Sage Pastel\Sage Pastel Intelligence Reporting\Version 14\lnk_24a1bc1e-5a9d-4147-9076-000f763a0b9a.txt]
• will be replaced with:
• \\alchemex-srv\users\dawie \\alchemex-srv:\Pastel14\Custom\SageIntelligence\BICore.exe -LNK[\\alchemex-srv\Users\Dawie.DJBOSMAN\AppData\Local\Sage Pastel\Sage Pastel Intelligence Reporting\Version 14\lnk_24a1bc1e-5a9d-4147-9076-000f763a0b9a.txt]
