How to save a BIRT report document
1 From the main menu, choose Enable Interactivity, then choose Save Document. Save displays the default location where the report is saved, as shown in
Figure 2‑7. You have the following options:
You can save the file in the default location, which is the user’s home directory (/Home/username), where username is the name of the user logged in to the application.
You can save the file in a different directory. To save the file in a different directory, select (/) to display a list of available directories from the path in Choose a Folder. Navigate to a new location from the path.

2 Choose a file name for the report.
To overwrite an older version of the report, in Find, type the name of the report or a string of characters from the name. Then, press Enter, or choose Find. Save displays the reports that match the string you provided. Choose the file name from the menu that appears.
To save the new report without overwriting an older version, type a new name in File name.
The report is saved as a BIRT report document (.rptdocument) file. To verify that your report has been saved, start your application server and navigate to the directory containing the report document file.
