More Holistic / Company Approach to Report Access

I'm wondering if there is a more holistic approach to a company-wide roles/permissions setup in Power BI. For example if I have several reports that a particular group of people need to see it is reundant to setup the same roles and security for those multiple reports. 

 

Am I misunderstanding how roles/permissions can work? I have a single table in my database that I then I have to pull into multiple reports, but within each report I need to setup either a disctinctive (and redundant role) and tie this table with RLS as well. The approach is both time-consuming, confusing, and inefficient. 

 

Any thoughts on what I might be misssing or how this might be streamlined at a more global level?

 

Thanks,

Jonathan
