2.1.2 Understanding the Reporting Folders

ZENworks Reporting contains personal as well as shared folders to create and organize reports. The
reports created in the personal folder are personal to the administrator and are not shared or visible
to other administrators. Only the reports that are created in the shared folder are accessible to the
other administrators.
The following report folders are available on the ZENworks Reporting Server:
Favorites Folder: The Favorites folder is the administrator's personal folder. This folder is
available to the administrator who has the Create/Delete Report right or the Execute/Publish
Report right. Administrators can save their reports in this folder only if they have the Create/
Delete Report right. This folder cannot be viewed by other administrators on the server.
Administrators who have the Create/Delete right on a Favorites folder can also save the
customized InfoView Page Layouts in to the Favorites folder. For more information on
customizing the InfoView Page Layouts, see the
User's Guide (http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir31/en/xi3-
1_bip_user_en.pdf).
Novell ZENworks Report Folder: This is a shared folder that can be accessed by all the
ZENworks administrators on the ZENworks Reporting Server. This folder contains the Custom
Reports and the Predefined Reports subfolders.
Predefined Reports Folder: The Predefined Reports folder contains reports that are
bundled with the product. The folder and its contents are accessible by all the
administrators on the server. The administrators can schedule, view, and manage the
historical instances of these reports only if they are assigned the Execute/Publish Report
right. However, the administrators cannot modify, create or delete these reports.
If you assign Create/Delete rights to the Predefined Report folder, this applies only the
Execute/Publish rights to the folder.
For report definitions of each of the reports in the Predefined Reports folder, see
Section 2.1.3, "Understanding the Predefined Reports," on page
Custom Reports Folder: Administrators who have the Create/Delete Report right can
create subfolders or reports within the Custom Reports folder and share it with other
ZENworks administrators based on their reporting rights.
