Shared Objects

Any report object can be shared within the same report or any other report.

Before you can share a report object, you first configure that report object as a shared object. You can then add that report object to a different location in the same report or in another report.

Share a Report Object

1. Open the report that you want to work with.
2. Right-click the report object that you want to share, then click Properties > Shared > Share.
3. The report object is now configured as a shared object and can be added to the current report or another report as a copy object or reference object.

Add a Shared Object to a Report

You can add a shared object from one report to other reports.

1. Open the report that you want to work with.
2. In the report tree on the left, right-click the report that you want to add a shared object to, and click Add Child > Shared Report Object.
3. Select the shared object that you want, and click either Copy or Reference. You can select a report object only if it is configured as a shared object.
4. The shared object is added as the last report object in the report, either as a copy object or a reference object.
