How You Can Change the Query Table Owner
When you are defining or editing a query, multiple tables having the same name—but different owners—may appear. Reporter issues a warning when it detects a table‑owner pair that is not a part of the current database. Mismatches are flagged with an asterisk (*), and the table name appears in CC_RED.
To prevent any problems related to mismatched ownership of tables, we recommend that you reconcile tables in the query with the current database. Mismatches can happen if a report is imported from a different database or if tables existing at the time the report was first created have been dropped.
Auto Search for Table Owners
Reporter enables the Auto Search for Table Owners command when it detects a mismatch. (You can manually enable this option by clicking Edit, Auto Search for Table Owners in the Query Editor.)
Auto Search tries to match tables with appropriate owners—Current User, DBA, someone else—in that order. Table names of successfully matched query tables appear in CC_BLUE. These matches, however, are only Reporter's suggestions; they cannot be saved directly. Permanent reassignment of owners can be accomplished only by using the Change Query Table Owner option.
