Allow Automated Reports to Generate Regardless of User

Having spoken with John via chat session, and discovering the cause of reports generating with blank data, it was discovered that a user that was no longer with the company was the last person who had modified a report.

The feature being requested is to simply allow reports to run and send out as they are scheduled, regardless of the user that put them in place.  While simply touching the reports and saving them with a different user does allow it to function, does not fix the root cause.  While the rest of LM datasources, dashboards, and graphs function regardless of creating user, the reports should continue to function as configured as well.

  • Another option here would be to avoid stranding anything bound to a user -- when you remove a user in other systems, like G Suite, you are required to assign a new user for all their documents.
