    My suggestion is to make a Role called "Also allowed to Create Reports".   For simplicity, you can either make his a Viewer type Role with no edit capability, or for that matter make no access to view or edit.

    But you would set that Role's setting to allow to create reports.

    The idea is that this an Addition Role that you would put these special users into in Addition to their regular Role.

    Mark,

    Thanks for your response. I was thinking of a similiar idea, but another question I had was is it possible for users to have multiple roles, such as John Doe having that Addition Role you suggested I create AND the "Provider User" role ?

    If so, can you tell me how to do that. I've looked into it but it seems like users can only have one role.
