Templates
I have saved my reports in to a category. Now i want to modify all the reports with the same change. So how can I change all the reports at a time? If I want to use a template, how can I apply it to all the reports at once?

RE: Templates
This is not possible in Business Objects. If you have already developed all the reports you have to modify them one-by-one. Though you can start with a template kind of a report to have same formatting in all the reports.

RE: Templates

If I have to reply to this question I will reply as

It is shame business objects do not have templates. but at the same time if we start creating templates we will end up creating number of different templates for different reports. Template is to suggest that same font header footer block header etc are used. When it comes to practical /developing the report we seem to fnd that header height is not enough because number of prompts to be display are more than what default templated can handle. So we start changing the height of headers. Again same applies to fonts as well. We should ideally stick to standard font. but you have to bend the rules for business community.

RE: Templates
Yes after creating report also we can apply template which you wanted to apply but one report at a time at desktop

Go to Format-->Report-->Apply template.

You will go to all report template and also you have a browser to your own template.
