What is a possible reason a System Administrator cannot share a report folder?

A report folder being private is a valid reason a System Administrator cannot share it. When a folder is set to private, only the owner of the folder has access to it, meaning that no one else, including other administrators, can view or share its contents. This restriction is typically in place to protect sensitive or specific information that should not be accessible to all users within the organization.

This scenario can occur in various contexts within report management systems, where folder sharing settings are designed to maintain data privacy and integrity. Understanding the nature of folder permissions is crucial for effective collaboration and report distribution within an organization.

In contrast, while custom objects may influence what can be reported, their presence does not prevent the sharing of a folder unless that folder's permissions are specifically restricted. Sharing with other users wouldn't be an issue if the folder is set to public, and enabling folder sharing is a broader organizational setting rather than a specific limitation for an individual folder.
