Hi,
I am trying to figure out how to package and deploy reports to multiple
report servers. We have 200+ clients, and are trying to switch over to
report server, but I can't find any documentation about deploying reports
outside of an organization.

To clarify a little, new releases come out quarterly, and are installed with
an msi installer, and we would like to be able to distribute reports with
our current process.

any help would be greatly appreciated...

Thanks
Craig

Craig,

There is a sample script that shows how to automate the publishing of
the reports. Is this the kind of thing you're looking for?

Your msi installer could land the report rdl and collect the variables
necessary for running a script similar to this.

That should do just fine =)

To help automate the script generation have a look at
