APAR status

  • Closed as unreproducible.

Error description

  • According to documentation, the capabilities Collaborate, and
    Cognos Viewer > Run With Options are associated to the Analytics
    User license.  If a user is added to the Consumers role and has
    both of these capabilities, but otherwise only has Information
    Distribution capabiltiies, then they incorrectly show up as an
    Information Distribution license in the Licenses tool, instead
    of Analytics User.
