Remarks

A custom report item is one that is not defined by standard RDL. You can insert any XML structure into the CustomReportItem element. The Type attribute and this XML structure can be processed by a custom application or server.

Use the ReportItems element to define a collection of report items to display when the application or server does not support the custom report item.
