- Multiple studies within multiple sponsors.
Update any links to drill-down reports in InForm standard reports that were copied to a target location.
Associate a copied report with a new Reporting and Analysis package at the target location.
Note: This includes saved reports as well as standard report definitions.

You must have the Modify System Configuration right to run the InForm Report Folder Maintenance utility.

You install the InForm Report Folder Maintenance utility on the Reporting and Analysis (Cognos) server as part of the Reporting and Analysis installation and configuration. You can find it at this path:

The InForm Report Folder Maintenance utility copies only reports and report definitions. It does not copy the folders that contain the InForm Trial Management package, or any published study-specific clinical package. For more information about the association between reports and report packages, see Report package association.

Note: You must configure a study in the Reporting and Analysis module before performing the procedures in this chapter. For more information, see the Study and Reporting Setup Guide.
