allow to share custom reports across suites

Currently I have to create custom reports per report suite. Would be nice if I could share the custom reports across suites easily.

This is badly needed. A common reason for people considering GA is because of the complexity of SiteCatalyst. And to recently find out that I couldn't copy over reports designed to make things more intuitive for users was very disappointing.

 

I now have to go and do the same thing for a client across 4 report suites, essentially quadrupling my workload.

 

This basically renders this feature useless for large organizations that have multiple report suites.

Hi, while this is a good suggestion, technically it can already be done.

 

So long as the suites you need to replicate your custom reports across are consistent, you can select all the reports you want to replicate across (plus the one with the reports) in the Report Suite management. Go to manage the menu, it will ask which should be the primary - choose the one with the custom report. Resave the menu (overwritting the menu on the other suites with your primary).

 

Now all the suites have the same custom reports.

 

 

Obviously this won't work if you have different menu structures for all the suites, or don't want all the custom reports shared over.
