Working with Report Manager - Learning SQL Server Reporting Services 2012 - page 174

Report Manager user interface
When the Report Manager is accessed for the first time from the Reporting Services
Configuration Manager or using its URL, you will not see any user-created objects
except for the Report Manager's features. It is assumed that the current user is the
Administrator of the computer who installed SQL Server 2012 and configured the
Report Server (this is so as mentioned in Chapter 1 , Overview and Installation - SQL
Server Reporting Services 2012 ). We have seen an image of the Report Manager UI
without any user-created objects earlier in this chapter.
As you start deploying report projects or uploading them to the server, user
created objects start appearing on the Report Manager as shown here. Note that
although you type in http://hodentekwin7/Reports_KAILUA , it will take you to
Home whose URL is fully displayed as http://hodentekwin7/Reports_KAILUA/
Pages/Folders.aspx .
As you can see, you will be able to create New Folder , New Data Source , launch
Report Builder , access Folder Settings , and Upload File . Details View is a toggle
switch that shows the user created objects as Tiles. When you click on the toggle
switch, you will see details of the user created (uploaded or deployed) objects and
the switch changes its title to Tile View .
Presently there is some problem launching the Report Builder and if you try,
it would throw an error. The link for the launch item is http://hodentekwin7/
ReportServer_KAILUA/ReportBuilder/ReportBuilder_3_0_0_0.application ,
but there is no such folder on the Report Server. A question has been submitted
to the forum regarding this issue at http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/
