Welcome to the Reports Sharing Center!
Starting with RangerMSP 5.4 you can easily share customized Reports in this forum.
In a nutshell
Each customized Report in RangerMSP can be exported to a file, and uploaded to this community sharing forum.
Use this forum to upload your customized Reports to benefit the community and to download customized Reports (uploaded by other members) and import them into your RangerMSP application.
By sharing your work you’ll help other members, and you’ll enjoy other members work.
This can save you a tremendous amount of time, as you can take advantage the time invested by other users who have already created reports which may be well-suited for your needs. These Reports can be further adjusted, just like any other customized report, to fit your specific requirements.
