Moving reports across machines

[Anonymous]

Hi

Is it possible to simply copy a report across to a new machine, so long as all of the databases are still available? For speed purposes I am looking to create the report on my local machine with copy data before migrating this on to the server where the live data is.

The two machines have two different product keys.

Thanks

Hi,

Yes we can do that,

make sure below line item while moving report from one instance to another instance

1) DSN (excel,database should work

2) try to keep both local machine/dev/uat vs production machine same folder structure

3) simply copy all the files (.qvw, excel source, include variable if u used, dsn connection etc)

4) create the qmc task (just replicate the uat to prod), for u r desktop case not required
