6.1.3 Saving a Report to the Working Repository
To view a report within the User Portal, you must save or deploy the report to a repository that can be accessed by a Style Intelligence server.
Style Studio's default working repository, called 'Default Repository', is a local repository located within the Style Intelligence installation directory in \server\webapps\sree\WEB-INF\classes. This same directory location is also the standard repository for the default installation of the Style Intelligence server. Therefore, when you deploy a report into the 'Default Repository', this report will be automatically available to the default installation of the Style Intelligence server.
Note: Style Studio deployment is intended for testing purposes. To deploy to a production server, see Deploying Reports in Administration Reference.
In the following example, you will use Style Studio to deploy the “Sample Sales Report” that you saved in the previous section, Adding Data Elements, to the 'Default Repository'. Follow the steps below.
1. In Style Studio, open the “Sample Sales Report” if it is not already open.
2. From the Style Studio File menu, select the 'Save As' command. This opens the 'Save As' dialog box.
3. In the 'Save As' dialog box, click the Repository tab.
Note: To deploy the report to an alternate repository, use the 'Deploy' button. See Deploying a Report or Asset to a Remote Repository.
This tab provides access to the working repository, the location from which Style Studio accesses reports and other assets. The physical storage of reports depends on the type of repository that you have configured in Style Studio. (See Configuring and Selecting a Repository for further information.)
4. In the 'Name' field, enter a name for the deployed report, such as “Sample Sales Report”.
This name is used as the physical report template file name (a “.srt” extension is added automatically). The name is also displayed as the report's label in the 'Repository' listing in the User Portal, unless you specify an alternate 'Alias' for this purpose.
5. (Optional) In the 'Alias' field, enter the label under which to display the report in the 'Repository' listing of the User Portal. If you do not supply an 'Alias', the 'Name' field is used to provide this label.

6. (Optional) Enter a 'Description' for the report. The description is displayed to users when they hover the mouse over the report name.
7. Press 'Save' to deploy the report into the working repository.
To verify that the report has been successfully deployed into the working repository, follow the steps below:
1. Expand the Style Studio Asset panel.

2. Expand the 'Report Repository' node on the tree.

3. Verify that the deployed report is displayed in the 'Report Repository' listing. Note that in the Style Studio Asset panel, the report is displayed using the label supplied by the 'Name' field (“Sample Sales Report”) rather than the label supplied by the 'Alias' field.
The deployed report will be available in the User Portal of the server that shares the same working repository as Style Studio. The next section, Using a Deployed Report, explains how users can access this report in the User Portal.
