The Report Template Manager dialog box displays.

2. Click Import.

The Open dialog box displays.

3. Browse to the location from which you want to import the report and click Open.

If a report with the same file name already exists, click Yes on the overwrite message to
overwrite the report.

If the title for the imported report already exists or the report does not have a title, an Edit
Report Title dialog box displays. Enter a new title for the report and click OK.

Exporting a report template

You can export a preconfigured or user-defined report template and use the BIRT report designer

overwrite the report.

When the export is complete, click OK on the successful export message.
