This is not true at the moment actually. The "build" permission does not work. You need to be member of the workspace, the source dataset is located in. I have a bug ticket open on this one and the fix is due at the end of April
We found only build permissions were necessary on the source dataset. I.e. in order to view reports from the subsiquent dataset, a user requires build permissions on the original dataset
You are correct. The build permission of the source dataset (And not the dataset actually being referenced) does solve the problem! Still not ideal, but its better than nothing.
