One of our admin roles is restricted to running reports. As such, they are give permission to search for most everything - but only in reports. Consequently, their menu access in the current system is limited to background jobs and reports. It's clean and has worked well for years. In b2005, however, the ability to search for items and users appears to mean that they are automatically given the menu access to additional areas for which the admins have no need to view (e.g. Learning Activities, People, etc.) The screen shots below are of the same admin where I have simply navigated from new to old interface, but notice the change in their menu access.
Has anyone else noticed the same? Am I missing a way to hide these menu items from the admin?
The administrators with report-only roles now have ability to search for data within the UI. They can only see search results. They can do search prior to running reports to get values for better report filters. Also, sometimes the information needed can be obtained by performing searches.
