Cause

The inquiries used by Velixo Reports are created in the Data Views folder (or the Hidden folder, if using Acumatica 2019 R1 or earlier) of the site map, and inherit the permissions set on the folder. By default, every role has access to this folder. However, your system administrator may have defined access rights that will be inherited by the Velixo Reports inquiries.

 

Resolution

See Configuring Access Rights for details about confirming the access rights that are assigned to the Velixo Reports inquiries, and how to work with those rights.
