Access control definition for the reports and reporting packages

You can define the access control for the LDAP users who are the members of a role that is defined in the IBM® Cognos® namespace. Access can be granted to those users who are the members of a defined role.

A user who has the system administrator privileges can grant the access.

Initially, all users are the members of the system administrator. Therefore, you can log in with your LDAP user authentication in IBM Cognos and access the administration section before you restrict the administration access.
