Title: Regarding Content Store
Post by: saumil287 on 12 Jul 2011 07:55:44 AM
Hi all,
I want to know where are the reports are getting stored?
Its in content store or in another place.
  one more thing -where are the reports output version are getting stored.
According to my knowledge, When we run the report, it either shows the saved report output.
If no version is saved, then it fetches the data from the database and displays the data in the report.
Please guide me If I am wrong
Thanks in advance

Hi,

Generally if you run an interactive HTML report the prccess flow will access the content store to check the access control list (permissions) and then retrieve the report specification that will be passed onto the report service to run and ultimately presented.

If you report is saved output  i.e. pdf, excel, saved HTML then this will be stored in the content store and retrieved and presented.

If you run interactive pdf/excel then this will still be stored in the content store temporarily and then presented.

Have a look at the Architecure and Deployment guide as this gives a breakdown of the relevant process flows mentioned above.

Cheers

Rob
