Allow Creator of NPrinting App to Edit without Admin Intervention

As NPrinting Administrator, I want to give developers the ability to create new apps and immediately be able to create connections, filters, etc for the app they just created.  Which means they need to have permission to edit the app they just created.  I also do not want to allow developers to edit All apps.

There isn’t a way to allow this in the current NPrint release

Example:

I create a security role for –  Sales Report Developer.  I assign that security role to Dev 1, Dev 2, and Dev 3 who are in the Sales Dept.

Dev 1 logs into the Web Console and sees Dev 2 App and Dev 3 App in the list of apps, but not Dev 5 App because that is not associated with the Sales Report Developer security role. So far everything works.

Dev 1 creates a new NPrinting app ( Dev 1 App ).  Once created, Dev 1 cannot see the application Dev 1 App in their Apps list until the NPrinting Administrator (who has rights to All apps) moves Dev 1 App into the Selected Items for the Sales Report Developer security role.

 I want Dev 1 to be able to edit and use Dev 1 App right away without any intervention needed from an NPrinting Administrator.

I am facing the same problem... our Nprinting environment is large and we are expending unnecessary time to assign Nprinting app to each role after developers creates a new Nprinting app. 

 

Another solution we though as possibility is removing the ability of developers to create Nprinting apps. Admins will be in charge of creating the Nprinting apps and assign them to the role... but we still require Admins to do this manual process for each Nprinting app.

I was thinking, as a solution, to allow developers or admins to pick a role while the Nprinting app is being created or edited
