Saving Reports and Charts

When applicable, you can use the Save Report window on the Report Builder page to enter or change the Report Name, Report Description and Report Icon.

Depending on your permissions, you may also be able to select:

• Save report for another user or Save report for a security group - makes the report available to a selected user or to all users in a selected security group. Only the specified user(s) will be able to view and edit the report, and it will show under "My Reports" or "My Charts."

Tip: If you create a report for another user, or for a security group that you don't belong to, you will not be able to access it again after the save. If you need to be able to edit the report again in the future, it is recommended to make sure you belong to the security group or save your own personal copy that you can modify and share again if needed.

• Save as application default - saves the current settings as the application default for this type of report, replacing the prior default. You cannot undo this action.
• Make Public - makes the report available to all users in the current entity. Any user in the entity will be able to view and edit the report, and it will show under "Public Reports" or "Public Chart Reports."

Note: This option will not appear if security levels have been implemented for the entity (see Security Levels).

• Add RDW Data Source - makes the report available to the Reliability Data Warehouse (RDW) in Weibull++.
• You can then use the RDW to create custom dashboards for the data that will be visible in ReliaSoft desktop applications and the SEP web portal. (See "Connect to XFRACAS Report" in the Weibull++ documentation.)
• Within XFRACAS, these reports are not visible in the Reports page, but they can be accessed for subsequent editing under "RDW Data Sources" in the Report Builder.
