Where are all the new reports stored in???

Hi,
I've created some new .rptdesign and imported them through MAXIMO Report Administration. I was looking for the physical file imported into MAXIMO but can't find it anywhere in the local machine, not even the standard MAXIMO report folder C:\IBM\SMP\maximo\reports\birt\reports. Where are the new reports stored? Inside the database? If so, why is there the Standard MAXIMO reports folder in C:\IBM\SMP\maximo\reports\birt\reports? Thanks in advance!

Cheers,
Genevieve

Yes, imported reports are stored in the database. The reports you are seeing on the disk are exported reports. This is why, when you need to do anything to your database (upgrades to Maximo, ect) that you need to export out your custom reports beforehand. When you export your custom report it will write it back to a file.
