    RE: Non Users Access to Refreshable Reports

    If the user's Windows account has permissions to the SharePoint site and library/folder where you store the Excel Report, the only other permissions they should need is to have the RPT_ database roles assigned to them under the GP system and/or company databases, which allows them to pull the GP data into those Excel Reports.

    With Excel Reports, as well as SQL SRS reports, and others, the users don't need an actual GP login, as the permissions are all given to the user's Windows account instead.

    This is touched on in the SystemSetup.pdf file, talking about setting up security for viewing data connections and Microsoft Excel Reports.

    Thanks
