change universe/report

Hi,

I only work sometimes with BO (5.1.1).

I changed a universe and stored it with a new name.
Now I want to change a report from the old universe to the new universe.

Is it possible ? How can I do it ?

Please, take a look at the Reporter FAQ here

Assuming you have not deleted the old Universe, you should be able to Open the report and go to the Data Manager (rubik’s cube looking button) / Definition tab. On this tab you will see a small drop box labeled Universe. There is a button with “…” (three periods), if you hit this button all available Universes will be displayed and you can select the new Universe.

thx, thx. :slight_smile:

I pointed the data provider from the old universe to the new universe.

The instructions are very good.
