Use Workgroups to share reports

 We recommend that you plan your workgroups before creating reports since a workgroup must be assigned when creating a report.

MRP’s Workgroup feature makes it easy to share your results with multiple people. As new members are added to a workgroup, they’ll automatically gain access to the report previously shared with that workgroup.

For example, if you create a workgroup with the name “Montreal Office” and add five users, you can instantly use this workgroup to share reports with them, just by sharing the report with the workgroup. If you add another user later, that user automatically inherits permission to access the reports shared with the workgroup. Similarly, if you remove a member from a workgroup, that user no longer has access to any content shared with the workgroup.

Creating a new workgroup

1. Navigate to the “Workgroups” window. (Menu > Settings > Workgroups)
2. Click the “Add” button.
3. Type the new workgroup’s name in the “Workgroup Name” field.
4. Add the users (if any) that should be members of this new workgroup.
5. Add the reports (if any) that should be visible to members of this new workgroup.
6. Click the “save” checkmark to create this workgroup.

5. Click the remove icon (X) next to the user(s) to be removed from this workgroup and they will move from the “Users Assigned” panel to the “Users Available” panel.
6. Click the “save” checkmark to commit the changes to this workgroup.
