[CLOSED] ReportCaster - how to identify schedules missing access lists

We're having a problem where one or more Report Caster access lists may have been accidently deleted. We're tying to identify schedules that should have access lists but don't.

If anyone is aware of the database field containing the 'private' indicator, it would be very helpful. We have thousands of schedules and many are 'private' so we need to filter the 'private' access option out of our results. Our results should return all non-private, Library Report distributions that do not have an access list.

Here's the basic query before any filtering. I have not been able to identify the 'Private' indicator.

SELECT *
--BOTACCES.ACCESSNAME,BOTACCES.CASTER_USER, BOTSCHED.JOBDESC
FROM BOTSCHED
LEFT JOIN BOTCAT ON
BOTCAT.SCHEDULEID = BOTSCHED.SCHEDULEID
LEFT JOIN BOTLIST ON
BOTLIST.ACCESSID = BOTCAT.ACCESSNAME
LEFT JOIN BOTACCES ON
BOTACCES.ACCESSID = BOTLIST.ACCESSID
LEFT JOIN BOTDIST ON
BOTDIST.SCHEDULEID = BOTSCHED.SCHEDULEID
ORDER BY BOTACCES.ACCESSNAME, BOTSCHED.JOBDESC

When you say "need to filter the 'private' access option out of our results" do you mean that you are looking for all published schedules?

If so, maybe this SQL can help.

Thanks for your reply Hallway. We're not looking for published schedules. Too bad screen shots can't be posted here ... 'Private' is a radio button in 'Access Options' for 'Report Library' distribution. The two Access Options are 'Private' and 'Shared with'. 'Shared with' requires an access list. 'Private' does not require and access list.

Gotcha. We've never used that feature.

I did find this in the docs that show the WebFOCUS Repository Tables for ReportCaster: https://webfocusinfocenter.inf..._reposreports150.htm

They can... Just need to post them to a site where all, or at least most, of us can get to.
