PM45533: WHEN RUNNING AN XLR FROM THE DEPLOYMENT PORTAL, AND TRYING TO REFRESH THE DATA YOU ARE PROMPTED TO LOG IN.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When running an XLR from the Deployment Portal, and trying to
  refresh the data you are prompted to log in.
  
  When a user clicks the XLR in Deployment Portal, it comes up OK
  but when they try to refresh it they get a login prompt with an
  error message like this: "Your Enterprise Reporting user ID and
  password are not valid for this data source.  Enter the correct
  user ID and password then click OK."
  
  The default user is set to ADMIN.
  
  I see the same thing here in both 4.0 and 4.2 CADS.  I see the
  same thing using an 8.0 or 9.0 Query.
  
  To recreate the issue you can log in to SUPCDS42 on Scooby.

  Login in with your Iseries credentials.  Then go to
  /DEP/Excel2003 SC 80 DEP 1.xlr and run it.
  When it comes up refresh it and you will be prompted with the
  error above and a login screen.
  
  We should be able to pass in the user from the Deployment Portal
  session to the web addin, that has worked in previous versions.
