Rename a Report or Report Folder

You cannot rename a configured report by changing the file name, but you can save the report
configuration as a new report and designate a new name for it. See

“Copy a Report” (page 233)

.

You must not rename a report folder or attempt to move the folder. If you do so, the Report
Explorer

will not be able to display the folder or the reports contained within it. Instead, create

a new folder, and copy reports to the new folder.
