I have a GP site that is looking to generate Management Reporter reports to a network share. We can do that on a share on the same server, however if we want to output to a share on another server the report fails with a permissions error. The user running the report is an MR admin and has full permissions on the share. That said, what are the minimum folder permissions required to generate MR reports to a network share and under which context or user are the reports generated. Is it under one of the service accounts?

Please advise. Look forward to a response.

The MR service account user will need to have access to the folder. When you generate a report, it's the service account user that is processing it, not the local user. The service account user would need at least modify rights to the shared folder.
