Hi,
We currently use Business Objects XI R2. We have Development, Staging and Production servers. We always send all reports we develop through the three environments and are finding this difficult and tedious to do. Is there an easier way (such as a Windows Client) that will allow use to drag/drop or Copy/Paste files from one server to another? Here is what we currently have to do to promote a report from one server to another:
1. Launch Crystal Reports XI R2.2. Open the report from the source Enterprise server.3. Save the report locally (such as on the desktop).4. Exit Crystal Reports XI R2 (as we can't logoff the current Enteprise server, or connect to another one).5. Launch Crystal Reports XI R2 with the "Desktop" version of the report.6. Use File/Save As and save the report to the target Enterprise server.
We have A LOT of reports, and sometimes we have to do this for a number of reports. As you can imagine, the process is tedious.
Is there anything that can help us?
Thanks in advance!
