Save Reports to a Report Server (Report Builder)
In Report Builder, you can save a report definition to a report server (also known as publishing a report). When the report is saved to a report server, other users can view the report. Each time you run the published report, you will retrieve the most current data. To save a static copy of a rendered report, export the report to a different file format and save it or use the report history feature to save versions of rendered reports.
Note
The location of the saved report definition does not affect whether the report is processed on the server or processed locally when you preview the report.

If you are resaving a report, it is automatically resaved to its previous location. Use the Save As option to change location.
