Creating a role based reporting based on owner role

Hello Daniel, Can you please elaborate on some points? Specifically:
1. Are you talking about Dashboard global filters or filters in report builder?
2. The schema of the object/data space from which you want to build this report?

Based on that, we can see how we can solve your particular use case.

Something we did was implement 'CSM manager' as a formula field on various Gainsight objects that pulled someone's manager based on what's in their user profile.  We then roll then into global filters for the dashboards for each manager to configure.
