[SOLVED] My ignorance is overwhelming
Could someone please tell me how to get to domian builder? we are running MRE but I need to change a setting and the only way I have found to do it is in domain builder. The setting is the default for 'Show on User's List' property for FEX and HTML. Sorry for the simple question but I am getting more confused the deeper I dig.
Thanks

I'm not sure what you are asking, but if you log onto MRE, double-click a domain, the leftmost tab is the domain builder. You can right-click to get the properties of standard reports so that you can adjust them.

Thanks Ginny. Unfortunately, I get an error on the page. Error on line 661, Char 9. 'Object doesn't support this property or method'. Then there is the URL with a long string of variables
like DomainAdminFlag=true&UserDomainFlag=true...
We do not have Report Caster. Is this the problem?

As Ginny stated, Login in to MRE:
  
http(s)://servername/ibi_apps/login/mr/mr_login.jsp?


If DOMAIN BUILDER is not on the top left, you do not have MRE Admin rights.

ReportCaster is not the issue.

A class or 2 may help...

The URL to login to MRE that I am aware of is:
http[s]://servername[:port]/ibi_html/workbnch/mrlogon.htm
where servername is your server and port is the port number if the default wasn't used during installation. You can also access MRE from Developer Studio if you have it.

Francis,

You are right for release 5. For 7.6.5 and above(I'm on 7.6.6), it is what Ginny and I referred to. I don't recall 7.6.1, or, what release this was changed to the jsp call.

Here's another way to get there:

http(s)://servername/ibi_apps

then select Managed Reporting (Applet) Interface

Thanks everyone. I did get to where needed but had to do it from the server. Turns out what I wanted to do is not supported in web focus. I was looking for a global way to turn off the 'Show on User's List' box. Our report writers forget (more often than not). As far as traing goes, yes I need more. Time and money are the issue in a small IT shop.

That makes your question a LOT clear and is something I've often wondered about, but as you state, is not possible. It is very counterintuitive to have that turned ON at intial creation. I ALWAYS want to have that turned off until I am done with development and testing ( so users can't see/use it until it's completed) and THEN turn it on as part of EXPLICIT steps to enable it in Production. Seems like it should be OFF by default and you should have to manually enable it, not the other way around.


Regards,

Darin
