There are 4 places to specify paths in FocalPoint for Crystal reports. Each serves a different purpose.
The Central Crystal Reports path
This path allows everyone that can log in to FocalPoint with access to reports to access the reports stored in this path.
To access this field, follow these steps:
Log in to FocalPoint Administrator
Click on System Options
Select Global Options
Click on the System Paths tab
The Security Profile Crystal Reports path
This allows only those users that are members of the relevant security profile to access the reports stored in this path.
To access this field, follow these steps:
Log in to FocalPoint Administrator
Click on System Control
Select Security Profiles
Select the relevant Security Profile
Click Edit
Click on the General tab
The Member record Crystal Reports path
This allows only the user that has this path set in their member record to access the reports stored in this path.
To access this field, follow these steps:
Log in to FocalPoint Administrator
Click on System Control

Select the relevant Security Profile
Click on Members
Select the relevant Member record

The Member record Crystal Reports path will override the Security Profile Crystal Reports path if a user has one specified, and both the Member record and the Security Profile paths will override the Central path.
