You can view the User's authorized Security Groups under "GROUP AUTHORIZATION"

1) System Management > Security > Security Groups
2) Query the existing Security Group that is already assigned to the user
3) Click on Module Folder, then the Crystal Reports Folder and locate the specific report within a selected module
4) Remove the red "X" next to the repot name by double clicking it or grant access to the entire folder by clicking the folder and Allow All
5) Close the window to save your changes
