Importing Reports

You can import advanced custom reports from the main Reports Manager window. The report layout you are importing must have an RDL file extension. RDL files are created using the Save As function in the Report Builder (advanced report) Application menu.

To import a custom report, do the following:

  1. Open Dashboard, click Application Links on the navigation panel, and then click Reports Manager under Reports.
  2. Click My Reports or Shared Library on the navigation panel and select a group.
  3. Click Import in the Report group on the Home tab. The Import a Custom Report window displays.
  4. Enter or browse to the RDL file you want to import.
  5. Enter a report name.
  6. Select a report type. The report type must be the same as the report type you are importing.
  7. Enter a report description.
  8. Click Import.
