    Hello,

    Has anyone experimented in Cognos 11.1.7 as an Analytics Viewer? 

    I've spent hours reading documents and Googling and experimenting and can't seem to figure this out. 

    I've read that Analytics Viewers don't execute reports but can subscribe to them but I've only been able to subscribe after running a report as a member of a more powerful role, not when viewing report output. 

    I've read that Analytics Viewers can't schedule reports and yet need that capability to see their subscriptions. I don't really understand what is needed here

    Is there any video on the experience an Analytics Viewer should have when using Cognos? 

    Thanks!
