Managing Repository Inventory

Use the Administer Repository dialog box to create and maintain document repositories and the objects stored inside the repositories. You can use this dialog box to inventory the contents of all repositories on a database server and update the descriptions of the stored contents.

To update a repository object description:

Select Tools, then Administer Repository, and select the Interactive Reporting database connection file associated with the repository object with which you want to work.
The Administer Repository dialog box is displayed.
Click the Inventory tab.
Select a model type from the Model Type drop-down box.
The Model Type drop-down box shows the model type folders that contain the repository objects. Interactive Reporting Studio supports three types of repository objects: Data Model, Standard Query and Standard Query with Reports. When you select a model type, the description for that model type becomes active.
Edit the description in the Description frame of the BRIOCAT2 area.
The BRIOCAT2 area shows the following catalog details for the selected model:
- Unique Name—Name of the object as it is displayed in the repository.
- Creator—Name of the person who created the object.
- Created—Date on which the object was saved to the repository defaults.
- Version—Version number of the object.
Click Update.

To modify the attributes of a document object itself, download the object, alter the Interactive Reporting document file and upload it to the repository. For more information, see Modifying Repository Objects.

To delete a repository object:

Select Tools, then Administer Repository, and then select the Interactive Reporting database connection file associated with the repository object with which you want to work.
The Administer Repository dialog box is displayed.
On the Inventory tab, select the model type to be deleted from the Model Type drop-down box.
Select a repository object from the Model List and click Delete.
The object is deleted from the repository.
