Please check that you have done the following step.
After the report is uploaded to PBIRS;
- Go to the PBIRS folder that pbix is residing.
Each pbix is shown in a tiled view with 3 dots on the top right hand corner.

It was only going on the server as another account that I could then follow your advice and find Manage...
As said, thank you very much, done a bit of testing and it looks to be working as expected! :-)
