Upload Custom Reports from the Vision Application Server
Use the Load Custom Reports tab in the Report Administration utility to upload custom reports (.RDL files) from your Vision application server.
When you run the Report Administration utility to upload custom reports, Vision users cannot access any reports.
To load reports:
- From the Vision Navigation menu, click .
- On the Load Reports tab, the Location of reports on application server field prefills with the path to the reports on the Vision application server location, which is C:\Program Files(x86)\Deltek\Vision\Reports.
- From the drop-down list in the Report Type field, select Custom.
-
In the
Report Name field, enter the name of the custom report that you want to upload into
Vision.
Enter the report file name without the .RDL file extension.
If you leave the Report Name field blank, all custom reports in the custom report folders on your Vision application server are loaded.
If you select the Delete existing reports in each folder before loading check box, Vision deletes all reports of the type that you selected that are currently loaded in Vision, and then re-loads the reports from the application server Reports folder.
- Click the Load Report Files button.
- Click Yes on the dialog box that warns you that loading reports prevents users from running reports for a few minutes.
-
On the dialog box that informs you that reports have been loaded, click
OK.
The custom report displays on the specified submenu of the
Vision Reporting menu after you log out and back into
Vision.
The custom reports also displays in the Report Name drop-down list in where you can add parameters to them.
