Saving queries as reports

After defining a query and selecting a corresponding format, you can save it as a report. Then, you can run it on demand, or even automatically run the report and display the results when you log on to IBM® Rational® Change. You can share it with others as well. If you share it, the report is displayed in the Shared report folder. The report is visible in all databases running on the same server.
