Here is your quick 5 minute Intro - For details, please refer to the attachments:
1. You need Report Admin Permissions to Create/Edit/Publish/Share reports. All end users can access reports if shared with them.

Custom Views (Solution Specific Views).
5. Reports can be created using a Wizard with 4 easy steps. Details are
