I've created 2 reports using a shared underlying dataset. I need each report to have different RLS.
Since RLS must be configured in the underlying dataset, the RLS defined in the dataset works perfectly for Report 1, but is too restrictive in Report 2.
Report 2's calculations use data that should be hidden in Report 1, but the result is a blank Report 2.
Thus, I somehow need to have RLS that does filter data out for Report 1, but does not filter out data in Report 2 for a specific role.
I am trying to avoid the duplication of the underlying dataset.
Has anyone had this dilemma and found a workaround?

No can do. You need different datasets.
Hi, this is possible when working with Webdashboard portal! (www.webdashboard.com)

Thanks for the reply. I feared this was the case. I will have to think about how to minimize the maintenance of 2 datasets that are almost identical.
