Publishing Financial Reports after version 2018

Good afternoon.

It is my understanding that we are no longer able to publish Sage Intelligence financial reports that were generated using the Consol Financial Report Designer using the Distribution Tab in the BITools Ribbon beginning with version 2019.

I wanted to make sure that this was in fact correct, and also to determine whether a work around was developed that would enable users to publish financial reports created using the Report Designer Add-In and distribute these to users that did not have the add-in installed, including users outside the organization.

Or is there additional setup required to enable the ribbon in newer versions as it is not visible by default.

Thanks in advance
