Setting Up My Grade Report
J1 Desktop Setup
Several features allow the user to create custom reports that the user can see from within the feature. During installation, several reports (InfoMaker .pbl files) are copied into default directories on the web server that these features access. Update the location of the customized reports for the My Grade Report feature.
Perform the following steps to configure J1 Desktop to support this feature.
Open the UI Configuration window.
In the Category Name drop-down list, choose Registration.
Locate the row for ReportPBLPath.
In the column, enter the location of the .pbl for the Registration module.
