The purpose of the Deploy Reports Record View is to deploy/re-deploy reports to the report server for use within NorthScope. Deploying a report is the process that installs it on the Report Server, making it accessible within NorthScope to users, based on their report access rights. This page is launched from the Manage Reports page by clicking the 'Deploy Reports' header toolbar icon. If no reports were selected when the icon is clicked, the page will open with all the reports that have not yet been deployed (status of "Not Deployed") listed in the Grid. If one or more reports were selected when the icon is clicked, the page will open with those reports listed in the Grid.
