Aria6 Features

Aria Revenue Analytics (RA) Power User Role (DEV-5363)

This feature enhances AriaRA by adding a Power User role with additional capabilities.

  • Shared Objects Folder
  • Report and Dashboard Tools

Shared Objects Folder

All AriaRA users now see an additional folder when they access AriaRA. This folder, which has the name <client_name> Shared Reports, is a subfolder of the Shared Reports area. Objects in this folder are available for use by all AriaRA users from the same client.

  • All users assigned roles that include AriaRA permission have read access to this folder.
  • Power users have read/write/delete access to this folder, and can place shared reporting objects in it, as well as organize it with subfolders.

Getting Here: Click Analytics and Reporting > AriaRA

  • Create > New Prompt: Allows you to create data collection prompts so users can dynamically create a report based on their inputs.
