can assign even greater levels of security by granting access to reports based upon their role in the organization. Departmental security allows users to see only reports for the department to which they have access, such as accounting, finance, or sales.

upon their particular role within the organization, for example the CEO or VP needs to access information across various departments throughout the enterprise.
