Install Report

The Smart Share Application allows you to install reports that have been shared by other Maintenance Connection organizations. Once a report has been installed, it will be available to run against your organization’s data.

When filtered to display Reports, the Smart Share window lists all reports available for sharing. Reports marked with a are available for installation. Reports marked with a are already installed on your system.
