Report Manager is a Web-enabled application. This means that you do not need to install any special software on your desktop to use Report Manager. Instead, the application opens in a browser.
Because Report Manager is Web-enabled, you can access it from almost any location that is connected to the World Wide Web as long as you can access your Report Manager server.
| Info |

...
Although Report Manager opens in a browser window it is important to understand that it is an application rather than a Web site. To perform activities within Report Manager, use the Report Manager controls, not your browser controls. Do not open information in a New Window, and you should not use the Back or Refresh hot-keys. Use the Precise bar instead. |
