# Set default report options

As an administrator, you can add default report options that are applied whenever a new report is created. Adding default report options does not apply the changes to existing reports. You can modify the options on reports without affecting the default option settings. You can also set an existing report back to the default settings by clicking the **Reset to default** link on the **Other** tab of the **Report Options** dialog box.

Role permissions are as follows:

| Actions | Administrator | Power user | Business analyst (View-only) |
| ------- | ------------- | ---------- | ---------------------------- |
| Set     | X             |            |                              |
| Reset   | X             | X          |                              |
| Remove  | X             |            |                              |

Perform the following steps to set a default report option:

1. Open the report you want to modify.
2. Select the **More actions and options** button, then click **Report Options**.

   The **Report Options** dialog box displays.
3. Enter the new default options in the **Report Options** dialog box and select **Set as default for all reports**.

   The **Alert** dialog box displays and gives you the option of canceling your changes.
4. Click **OK** to apply your new defaults.

   The default options are set for new reports.

   **Note:** Default settings cannot be applied to the dimensions that are available on the **Drill-Through Columns** dialog box.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.pentaho.com/pba/10.2-analytics/pentaho-analyzer-cp/set-analyzer-report-options/set-default-report-options.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
