Is there a way for a user to see all data for all branches when running a particular report regardless of access rights?
Scenario: Vendor asks a branch for full remittance details on a check but that branch only has access to there branches information so they can not send. Is there a way for them to pull all info on that check without changing access rights?

You could attempt a workaround to this, and instead run the report from an automation schedule and under the branch field/parameter, use @@branch and it will report all branches. You can further filter the report to that single vendor and that specific check and have the report emailed on a one time use schedule to the user that can verify the information and forward it to the vendor. This automation schedule will have admin rights as a system user and won’t need additional permissions added (Assuming the user has access to automation schedules). Not sure how long this will work before they lock down this workaround. ;)
I believe that this is a limitation of user rights. The only way that I can think to do this would be to give users access to the other branches and then limit what they can see on those other branches.
