Export a Report Definition to an XML File

You can save a report definition as an XML file for later viewing.

If you have multiple interfaces, you can import the XML file to copy a custom report from one interface to another. This lets you create duplicates of complex custom reports on other interfaces without manually re-creating the reports.

The following procedure explains how to export report definitions to XML files, which you can later import. See Import a Report from an XML File.

1. To export a report definition from the Report Definition window:
   1. Click the window’s Export button.
   2. Select Report Definition.

2. To export a report definition while you’re viewing or editing it:
   1. Click the Home tab.
   2. Click Definition.
   3. Select Export.
   The Save As window opens.
3. Select a location for the file and enter a file name.
4. Click Save.

Results:

The report definition is saved as an XML file.
