Searching for your Report

Users often have trouble finding their BI Tool reports for two reasons: 1. BI Tool Reports are Prebuilt reports, not custom reports 2. The author of BI Tool reports is always District, not the user who installs the report.

Tips:

  • Make sure you are not filtering your report search for Custom Reports.

  • Make sure you are not filtering your report search for "Author: Me".

  • BI Tool Reports will always be Type: Prebuilt and Author: District

Run Your Report

  • On the List Reports page, search for the title of your report.

  • Click View in Browser
