Updating multiple child reports using one parent

I've got a report set up to be accessed by multiple separate groups that each see only their own data.

I'd like to build in the capability to make an edit in a single "parent" dashboard which will then be automatically applied to each of the "child" dashboards, instead of having to make the same edit in 50+ separate reports.

Is there a tool for this?

Thanks!

Hi @Delox ,

 

You can probably try the below 2:

1. Apply Row Level Security in the report so that various groups will see only data they are supposed to view

2. Create multiple reports based on same dataset but filtered by various filtering criteria to show data specific to groups

 

Give a thumbs up if this post helped you in any way and mark this post as solution if it solved your query !!!

 

Thank-you Anand24,

The methodology for publishing these reports to show only the applicable data has been pretty much finished. 

My question now is regarding down the road one-off updates like changing the report header, or layout of the chart for example.  I'm curious to know if there is a way to mass-update these reports using a parent-child style relationship.

I'm not even sure of the term for this!
