You can save a report and control who has access to the report. Once you save a report, it is accessible from the Saved Reports tab. Saved reports are grouped by the report’s category (such as Accounting Reports or Sales Reports). Within each category, the saved report displays the original report’s name, the name under which it was saved, and the folder to which it was saved, if any. Once you save a report, it can also be scheduled to run in a batch. For more information, refer to Scheduling a Report to Run at Regular Intervals.
