Location that DESKI Report was run from

Hello all,
In order to validate report content, we have a problem where many users “run rogue”, saving DESKI reports locally to their hard drive and run reports in this fashion. The problem is that they modify these reports locally and we have no idea what output we are looking at. We prefer that everybody run reports from the repository without modifying them. Is there any way to display a variable that calls a function which tells you where the report was last retrieved from? Long story short, we want to make sure the report is pristine, unmodified and retrieved from the repository where we control our reports that are developed.

Am i making sense?

Thanks for your help.

Hi,
How about restricting them from saving Deski reports locally? This approach will force them to refresh the documents from repository.

Thanks
