User Account
When creating User accounts to be used by district staff to access USAS-R reports, there are two main options that will be discussed below:
...
Once the accounts have been enable/created. The users should be assigned a role to allow them access to run reports. While the standard USAS_RO role will allow this access, this also gives additional view access. To assign access to only the reports needed for that user, a custom role can be created. Click here to view the basics of how to Create a Role. The permissions added to the role depends on the reports you want them to have access to. Districts may grant a standard Financial Reports role to give all users the same set of reports to run (which will then be filtered to their accounts) or unique roles depending on which reports certain users may need. Once a Reports Role is created, assign the role(s) to User accounts that were enabled/created in the previous section.

The following options allow districts to schedule sending Financial Reports to district personnel via email. Prior to sending reports, the Email Notification Services module will need to be enabled and the appropriate information should be entered in the Email Configuration.

Report Bundles can be used to schedule a group of reports to send to district personnel via email at a regular interval or upon a specific system event. Details on how to Create a Report Bundle can be found on the Report Bundles page.
To send reports to district personnel, follow the process to create and schedule the report bundle and enter the email address of the employee that should receive the report. Report bundles will be sent on the specified interval or event and will not require the employee to log into USAS-R (no USAS-R user account required). Jobs related to report bundles can be viewed in the Job Scheduler by the user that scheduled them and any Admin users. To stop a scheduled report bundle, disable or delete the bundle in the Report Bundles grid. Report bundles can be modified as needed to add, edit, or remove reports. The reports within the bundle can also be modified to update report parameters. If the email address for the employee that should receive the report bundle changes, this can also be updated by using the scheduling icon
to edit the scheduling information.
