New reports are designed in SSRS using Report Builder 2.0/3.0, depending on your version of SSRS or Business Intelligence Studio, to create the RDL (Report Definition Language) file. Avolve creates the reports in Report Builder 2.0 to be compatible with both versions.
The RDL file is an XML file which contains database connection information, SQL and the report design. Once created, the report RDL is imported to SSRS Report Manager and to the ProjectDox site to allow for further configuration and viewing inside of the application.
While there are options to import the RDL to Report Manager and ProjectDox, Avolve recommends using ProjectDox Enterprise Manager.
To modify an existing report,
click the Edit Report button 
for the

tab where you may edit and click Save Report to save your changes.
Attempts to save
reports in the root folder of SSRS will result in an error, indicating
the report path cannot be found. To resolve this, you may add a forward
slash (/) to the report path when saving, or store reports in lower
level folders (recommended).

Custom
ProjectFlow reports have to have “ProjectFlow” at the beginning of
the report name otherwise they don't get listed. Make sure the name
of the report reflects this.
