When a report is deleted in Configuration Manager 2007, the report object is removed from the site database, resulting in the following changes to the report's status:
- It no longer appears in the report list in
the Configuration Manager console or Report Viewer.
- It no longer appears in dashboards in which
it was included.
- It is no longer available to source reports
that use the deleted report as the target for a link. The report
link in the source report no longer works when the target report is
deleted, and the link should be removed or reconfigured.
Use the following procedure to delete a report.
Procedure
To delete a report
-
In the Configuration Manager console, navigate to System Center Configuration Manager / Site Database / Computer Management / Reporting / Reports.
-
Right-click the report that you want to delete, and then click Delete.
-
Click Yes to confirm that the report should be deleted. When other reports or dashboards specify this report as a link target or a dashboard report, they are listed in the Delete Report dialog box; deleting this report causes the report link for the other report to fail and the dashboard to no longer display the expected data.
