Enhanced Reporting: Assign a Report to All Projects
Objective
To assign a report to all of the projects in your company's account using the Enhanced Reporting tool so that each project team is using the same standard report.
Background
Assigning reports to all projects allows company administrators to standardise reports across the company and create consistency in reporting. Assigning reports to all projects differs from cloning a report, because you are adding this report to all projects in the company rather than simply copying the report to the same company or project's Reports tool. To learn how to clone a report, see Enhanced Reporting: Clone a Report. Assigning reports to all projects also differs from sharing a report, because sharing a report only allows other users access to the report and the report does not propagate in all projects. To learn how to share a company report, see Enhanced Reporting: Share a Report.
