Setting Up a Virtual Directory for Shared Oracle Business Intelligence Documents

Set up a virtual directory on the Web server for shared documents. Name the directory /DashboardFiles and map it to a shared network directory of the same name.

This allows users with the appropriate permissions to publish files to this folder, and reference these files by their relative URL names rather than by their fully qualified network share names, for example, /DashboardFiles/AnnualReport.doc instead of \\SharedServer\CommonShare\DashboardFiles\AnnualReport.doc.
