Save an Item

The procedure to save custom reports, report styles, chart styles, color schemes, and text fields is similar, no matter what type of item you’re saving.

  1. After editing the item, select the appropriate save option on the Home tab:
    • To save changes to the item without closing it, select Save.
    • To save a new item, or to save a copy of the item you’re editing with a different name, select Save As.
    • To save changes to the item and close it, select Save and Close. This option is faster than saving a change and then manually closing the window.
    Note: Options for saving a custom report are accessed by clicking the arrow on the Save button on the report designer’s Quick Access toolbar.
    When you select Save As, or attempt to save a new item for the first time, the Save As window opens to name the item.
  2. To store the new item in a custom folder, go to the folder.
    You can store custom files only in custom folders.
  3. Enter a name for the new item in the Name field.
  4. Click OK.
