5.4.6  Archived Reports

This section explains how to use archived reports.

Archiving a Report

A report can be saved into the archive through a scheduled task or by a user through their Portal page, using the 'Save as archive' option in the 'Save As' dialog box. If a file system archive is being used, archiving a report with the same name as an existing archived report will cause the original archived report to be overwritten by the new archived report. If a 'CVS' archive is being used, saving a report to an existing report adds a new version to the archive, rather than replacing the previous version. The versions are stored until removed explicitly by the user, or according to the version archive rule.

Opening an Archived Report

If a user has at least read permission in an archived report, the archived report shows up on the repository tree on the user's Portal page. A user can then click on the archived report name to view the report.
