Additional Global fields within RS

Hi,
the usage of GLOBALS in RS is very useful because they could be used
within the definition of data sources as parameter as well as content
to fill report text fields etc.
Has anybody an idea, how to define an additional GLOBAL var and fill it
with a value' (e.g. via code extension)
Thanks for your suggestions
best regards
BruceOne way to do this is to create a parameter and leave the prompt empty... It
will not be shown with the other parameters, but it still part of the
parameters collection...
You might also try to create Statics variables in the REport Code section.

Adding multiple role assignments all at once

Is there a way to add multiple role assignments to a report definition all at once?

Instead of going to the Report Manager, selecting each individual report definition, and then clicking on "New Role Assignment" multiple times to add users, is there a way to add multiple users all at once?

You can write a script and use rs.exe.

Here is a pointer to the tool. There should also be information for example scripts.
