Auto Refresh on Webi Report won't disable

I have a report that Auto Refreshes even though the Refresh on Open option in the Document Properties is not enabled (no check mark). Is there a setting somewhere I may be missing? My data providers are Purged and saved that way. I want to Modify the report without it auto refreshing. I am using version 4.2 Support Pack 2.

Below is little snippet from Help.

Note: The Refresh on open option is dependent on the following settings in the CMC (configured by the BI administrator):

  • In Applications–>Web Intelligence–>from the Manage list, select Properties. In the Automatic Document Refresh on Open Security Right Setting section, the property Automatic Refresh security setting is enabled.
  • In Applications–>Web Intelligence–>from the Manage list, select User Security. When you select a user profile and click View Security, verify that the Document - disable automatic refresh on open security right is disabled.

I would be tempted to try this:
Open the report and wait for it to refresh. Check the box so it is set to auto refresh. Save the report. Open it again. Wait for it to refresh. Uncheck the box. Save it again. Open it again and…tell us what happens.

Thanks Nick,

I did try this - enabling and disabling the Auto Refresh, but it didn’t work

Do you have any scheduled instances associated with this report?

Thanks Anil,

I don’t have access/rights to the CMC. But I think you are correct. I tried enabling the Auto Refresh in an unrelated report and it didn’t Auto Refresh.

Do I need to contact the BOBJ Admin to fix the settings on the problem report?
