Good morning,

I’ve got a report setup in a dev environment that I’m looking to move over to my production environment. Unfortunately, unlike windows, templates, and tags, I seem to be unable to export the design of a report. Has anyone found a workaround for this? I’d prefer not to look over every property to make sure the report design is exactly the same unless that’s our only option.

In your designer if you go to file, then export, you should be able to select the report there to export it. Then you use file/import to bring it into the production server.

OK Great, thank you! I was under the impression that if the export option wasn’t available when right-clicking then it just wasn’t available for export.
