Edit a report model

1. From Report Explorer, in the Models folder, right-click on the model you want to edit and select Edit model. The Generate Report Model screen appears.

2. Make any necessary changes to the model.

   Warning: You should not edit a report model already used for reports unless you are sure the changes you make will not affect those reports. Removing fields from a report model means that data will no longer be available in reports which use the model.

3. Select Save to save your changes and return to the Report Explorer page.

   Note: In SQL Server 2014, the Generate Report Model screen will display the option to Open the report model with report builder, which automatically links the model with the report. In SQL Server 2016, the Open the report model with report builder link does not function due to the deprecation of certain features of Microsoft and the Report Builder. To edit the Report Model using SQL Server 2016, open SQL Server Reporting Services, create a new report, and select the model created from Blackbaud Enterprise CRM.
